“Some ideas need to be continually reinvented and rediscovered, particularly an idea like the omnipotence of humans. It takes a long time to give up.” GivingLongGiving Up Author:David Holmgren

But the other way to think of it is this: through manifesting the way we live and acting as if it's normal, you're defending yourself against depression and dysfunction, but you're also providing a model that others can copy. And that is absolutely about bringing large-scale change.” ThinkingGivingTryingActingGiving UpNegativeManifestIndulgencePessimisticTrying To Change Author:David Holmgren
