Happy 43rd Earth Day. In this post I am sharing some Earth-related quotes that inspire me to live more harmoniously with nature, and make every day Earth Day.
"He that plants trees loves others beside himself."
- Thomas Fuller
"There is a great need for the introduction of new values in our society, where bigger is not necessarily better, where slower can be faster, and where less can be more."
- Gaylord Nelson
"It is possible for a nation to have high well-being with a low ecological footprint."
- The Happy Planet Index
"For 200 years we've been conquering nature. Now we're beating it to death."
- Tom McMillan
"If we aim for what is no longer possible, we will achieve only delusion and frustration. But if we aim for genuinely worthwhile goals that can be attained, then even if we have less energy at our command and fewer material goods available, we might nevertheless still increase our satisfaction in life."
- Richard Heinberg
"We can pay the ecological debt by changing economic models, and by giving up luxury consumption, setting aside selfishness and individualism, and thinking about the people and the planet Earth."
- Evo Morales
