The Earth is the Lord's and the fulness thereof.
Psalm 24
There is grandeur in this view of life, with its several powers, having been originally breathed into a few forms or into one; and that, whilst this planet has gone circling on according to the fixed law of gravity, from so simple a beginning endless forms most beautiful and most wonderful have been, and are being evolved.
Charles Darwin
The Origin of the Species, 1859
The essence of spirituality is connection.
Pastor Carl Walker
Our goal is not just an environment of clean air and water and scenic beauty. The objective is an environment of decency, quality and mutual respect for all other human beings and all other living creatures.
Senator Gaylord Nelson, 1970 on the first Earth Day
