“We're a young species; We're only 175,000 years old. On the evolutionary scale, life on this planet is 4 billion years old. We're 175,000 years old. So we're trying something out. Who wouldn't think it would be better to have the most stuff to take as much as you could? As we do that, we see why the moral prophets come along and say, don't even store into barns, right? It's easier for a camel to pass through the eye of the needle than a rich man to enter the kingdom of heaven. We've seen we plunder nature. We plunder our neighbor. We create enemies because we're against each other.” ThinkingMenTryingYearsWould BeEyeYoungHeavenStuffMoralEnemyRichPlanetsEasierSpeciesStoresNeighborBillionsScalesKingdomsProphetCooperationNeedlesRich ManKingdom Of HeavenThrough The EyesCamelsPlunderBarnsTrying Something Author:Tom Shadyac

“Nature is very clear on this. In fact, there's one fundamental law that all of nature obeys that mankind breaks everyday. Now this is a law that's evolved over billions of years and the law is this: nothing in nature takes more than it needs. A redwood tree doesn't take all of the soil's nutrients, just what it needs to grow. A lion doesn't kill every gazelle, just one. We have a term for something in the body when it takes more than its share. We call it cancer.” NeedsYearsFactsBodyLawGrowsTermBreakClearTreeShareMankindFundamentalsEverydayCancerBillionsSoilJust OneLionsNutrientsRedwoodsGazelles Author:Tom Shadyac
