“If future generations are to remember us with gratitude rather than contempt, we must leave them something more than the miracles of technology. We must leave them a glimpse of the world as it was in the beginning, not just after we got through with it.”
"I am a compromiser and maneuverer. I try to get something. That’s the way our system works."
- Lyndon B. Johnson
Awareness
"You aren’t learning anything when you’re talking."
- Lyndon B. Johnson
Learning
"The land flourished because it was fed from so many sources–because it was nourished by so many cultures and traditions and peoples."
- Lyndon B. Johnson
Connection to Earth
"The moon and other celestial bodies should be free for exploration and use by all countries. No country should be permitted to advance a claim of sovereignty."
- Lyndon B. Johnson
Responsibility
"At the desk where I sit, I have learned one great truth. The answer for all our national problems -- the answer for all the problems of the world -- comes to a single word. That word is education."
- Lyndon B. Johnson
Education
"What starts on Monday should carry through to Friday; that is, enthusiasm."
- Byron Pulsifer
Environment
"Technology is destructive only in the hands of people who do not realize that they are one and the same process as the universe."
- Alan Watts
Environment
"Inability to accept the mystic experience is more than an intellectual handicap. Lack of awareness of the basic unity of organism and environment is a serious and dangerous hallucination. For in a civilization equipped with immense technological power, the sense of alienation between man and nature leads to the use of technology in a hostile spirit—to the 'conquest' of nature instead of intelligent co-operation with nature."
- Alan Watts
Environment
"Leave nothing but footprints, take nothing but photos, kill nothing but time."
Environment
"Bees are a sign of environmental health. A world without bees is a world that has lost its way."
