“To allow mystery, which is to say to yourself, 'There could be more...things we don't understand,' is not to damn knowledge....It is to permit yourself an extraordinary, freedom: someone else does not have to be wrong in order that you might be right...This tolerance for mystery invigorates the imagination; and it is the imagination that gives shape to the universe.” GivingDoeMightOrderUniverseImaginationMysteryShapesExtraordinaryToleranceDamnPermitMight Is Right Author:Barry Lopez
“Conversations are efforts toward good relations. They are an elementary form of reciprocity. They are the exercise of our love for each other. They are the enemies of our loneliness, our doubt, our anxiety, our tendencies to abdicate. To continue to be in good conversation over our enormous and terrifying problems is to be calling out to each other in the night. If we attend with imagination and devotion to our conversations, we will find what we need; and someone among us will act—it does not matter whom—and we will survive.” IfsNeedsDoeMatterProblemFormNightImaginationEffortEnemyDoubtLonelinessExerciseCallingConversationAnxietyRelationEnormousDevotionTendenciesOur LoveReciprocityGood Conversation Author:Barry Lopez
