“I have no creative use for guilt, yours or my own. Guilt is only another way of avoiding informed action, of buying time out of the pressing need to make clear choices, out of the approaching storm that can feed the earth as well as bend the trees.” WayNeedsWellsUseActionEarthChoicesMy OwnCreativeClearTreeGuiltStormBuyingAvoidingAnother Way Book:Sister Outsider: Essays and Speeches Source: Sister Outsider: Essays and Speeches
“Spring flew swiftly by, and summer came; and if the village had been beautiful at first, it was now in the full glow and luxuriance of its richness. The great trees, which had looked shrunken and bare in the earlier months, had now burst into strong life and health; and stretching forth their green arms over the thirsty ground, converted open and naked spots into choice nooks, where was a deep and pleasant shade from which to look upon the wide prospect, steeped in sunshine, which lay stretched out beyond.” IfsFirstsLooksBeautifulChoicesStrongTreeArmsMonthsSummerSpringGreenLaysWideNakedSpotsPleasantLook UpSunshineVillageShadeRichnessFlewStretchingThirstySummer SunStrong Life Book:Oliver Twist: Or, The Parish Boy's Progress Source: Oliver Twist: Or, The Parish Boy's Progress
“Planners and designers should encourage as much diversity in human habitats as they find in animal habitats. It is not possible to resolve all conflicts or to gain all ends. Choices have to be made. Different aspects of the public good should be stressed in different places. To achieve variety in land use patterns, there should also be a variety of relationships between the professions, not an institutionalized decision-making tree. Relationships between the constructive professions should, therefore, be deconstructed.” ShouldHumansMadeDifferentEndsUseChoicesDecisionAnimalTreeLandAchieveConflictDiversityGainsAspectPatternsProfessionVarietyDesignerDecision MakingResolveConstructiveStressedDifferent PlaceHabitatBiodiversityPlannersPublic GoodLand Use Author:Tom Turner
