“We often say God is never late, but generally He isn’t early either. Why? Because He uses times of waiting to stretch our faith in Him and to bring about change and growth in our lives.” UseWaitingGrowthOur LivesLateChange And Growth Author:Joyce Meyer
“[On women getting the vote:] The newspapers, poor dears, looked of course for something very spectacular. But then newspapers are always apt to be more interested in phenomena like meteors than in the slow growth of a mighty tree.

“Capitalism rules worldwide, and a society whose economic fabric depends on constant growth requires that its citizens have ever-expanding needs and wants... In the West, it will take one with soul force equal to Gandhi's to change the prevailing dogma of ever increasing GNP. We may be forced to change our profligate ways some day, when the soil is depleted, the aquifers drained, the icecaps melted, and all the oil wells pumped dry. But the crisis will wait another fifty years or so; we'll leave those problems to a generation yet unborn.” WayWantNeedsYearsWellsMaySoulProblemForceWaitingGrowthGenerationsEconomicDependsCitizensEqualCapitalismCrisisConstantWestEnvironmentalOilDrySoilFiftySustainabilityDogmaFabricExpandingUnbornPrevailingDrainedNeeds And WantsSoul ForceAquifers Author:Philip Yancey
“But waiting for 'eventually' to prove the alarmists wrong is not the wisest course of action. Unfullfillable ambitions to stifle growth will devastate a world trying to deal with the complexities of economics, stability, and the environment. Quality of life depends on access to energy. Noble intentions about 'C02-free' sources of energy are not sufficient, if their agenda of eliminating coal as a source, and turning their back on nuclear, are allowed to be part of our near-term policies.” IfsWorldTryingActionCoursesEnergyWaitingGrowthTermDealsQualityEnvironmentPolicySourceDependsProveAmbitionEconomicsIntentionNobleAccessNuclearSufficientComplexityAgendasStabilityCoalQuality Of LifeWisestEliminatingAlarmists Author:John H.

“Without the heart to ground it and open it to who we really can be as human beings, the brain is a very dangerous machine. A machine that is saying: we've got to have economic growth; we've got to have unending economic growth, otherwise societies will collapse. And yet there should be something saying: wait a minute, this isn't going to work.” ShouldHumansHeartWaitingGrowthHuman BeingsBrainEconomicMinutesDangerousMachinesCollapseGoing To WorkEconomic GrowthUnending Author:Jane Goodall
“Ivy [Wilkes] does exhibit a certain impatience at the beginning of the book [The Dissemblers].

“I'm very primitive in terms of economics. The kind of new business in which stock gets more valuable because the company grows, but there must be limits to growth.

“There is too much economic growth not happening that needs to be jump-started. There are too many jobs to be created, and there's too much wealth waiting to be created.

“We have to acknowledge that we can't look to manufacturing or natural resources to drive growth like we have in the past. Human capital, talent, and knowledge are our most important resources now. Every city has hidden seeds of opportunity waiting to be nurtured. Places like Detroit, Cleveland, and Pittsburgh are among my favorite cities. They have great universities, clusters of innovation across a range of industries, and pools of innovative and creative talent to build on.” ImportantPastOpportunityWaitingGrowthNaturalCreativeTalentInnovationMy FavoriteAcknowledgePoolInnovativeNatural Resources Author:Richard Florida
