It is no more possible to live in the future than it is to live in the past. If life is not now, it is never.
Wendell BerryThere are moments when the heart is generous, and then it knows that for better or worse our lives are woven together here, one with one another and with the place and all the living things.
Wendell BerryIโve been thinking about that question about what city people can do. The main thing is to realize that country people canโt invent a better agriculture by ourselves. Industrial agriculture wasnโt invented by us, and we canโt uninvent it. Weโll need some help with that.
Wendell Berry... it is not a crisis of our environs or surroundings; it is a crisis of our lives as individuals, as family members, as community members, and as citizens. We have an 'environmental crisis' because we have consented to an economy in which by eating, drinking, working, resting, traveling, and enjoying ourselves we are destroying the natural, god-given world.
