We need to understand the connection between peace and the environment. We know that life on our planet is threatened by the twin threats of global warring and global warming. They are linked, and we have to understand that as we cognize the world as being interconnected and interdependent, we know that resource wars are passe and that the focus on sustainability will create peace.
~Dennis Kucinich, 2008 U.S. Presidential Candidate

There is no way to peace; peace is the way.
~Mahatma Gandhi

The spaces of the Universe
swallow me up like a speck
but I, by the power of thought
may comprehend the Universe.
~Blaise Pascal

No ray of sun is ever lost
but the seed which it warms
needs time to flourish and grow
and it is not always given to the sower
to see that which is brought forth...
All work that is worthwhile
is done in faith.
~ Albert Schweitzer

Flower Essences
The action of these remedies is to raise our vibrations and open up our channels for the reception of the Spiritual Self... They are able, like beautiful music or any glorious or uplifting thing which gives us inspiration, to raise our very natures... They cure, not by attacking the disease, but by flooding our bodies with the beautiful vibrations of our Higher Nature, in the presence of which disease melts away as snow in the sunshine.
~ Edward Bach

Mass and energy are both but different manifestations of the same thing.
~Albert Einstein

No problem can be solved from the same level of consciousness that created it.
~Albert Einstein

Be the change you want to see in the world.
~ Mahatma Gandhi
