Plant Quotes
-
I believe that we have all at some time eaten the fruit from trees that we did not plant. In the fullness of time, when it is our turn to give, it behooves us in turn to plant gardens that we may never eat the fruit of, which will largely benefit generations to come. I believe this is our sacred responsibility, one that I hope you will shoulder in time.
N. R. Narayana Murthy

Okay, so why was the plant built in the first place? It was built to produce products. Why can’t that be the goal? Jonah said it wasn’t. But I don’t see why it isn’t the goal. We’re a manufacturing company. That means we have to manufacture something, doesn’t it? Isn’t that the whole point, to produce products? Why else are we here?

Antoine de Saint-Exupery

Emily Bronte

Hallucinogenic plants act as enzymes which stimulate imagination.
Terence McKenna
-
Even if I were certain that the world would end tomorrow, I would plant a tree this very day.
Martin Luther King, Jr.
-
Nature is not our enemy, to be raped and conquered. Nature is ourselves, to be cherished and explored. Shamanism has always known this, and shamanism has always, in its most authentic expressions, taught that the path required allies. These allies are the hallucinogenic plants and the mysterious teaching entities, luminous and transcendental, that reside in that nearby dimension of ecstatic beauty and understanding that we have denied until it is now nearly too late.
Terence McKenna
-
I think that any time of great pain is a time of transformation, a fertile time to plant new seeds.
