“Conservation is getting nowhere because it is incompatible with our Abrahamic concept of land. We abuse land because we regard it as a commodity belonging to us. When we see land as a community to which we belong, we may begin to use it with love and respect. There is no other way for land to survive the impact of mechanized man, nor for us to reap from it the aesthetic harvest it is capable, under science, of contributing to culture” MenWayMayUseCultureCommunityLandCapableConceptsAbuseRegardImpactBelongingAestheticCommodityConservationHarvestReapContributingLove And RespectLand Conservation Book:A Sand County Almanac, and Sketches Here and There Source: A Sand County Almanac, and Sketches Here and There
“Philosophers have very justly remarked that the only solid instruction is that which the pupil brings from his own depths; that the true instruction is not that which transmits notions wholly formed, but that which renders him capable of forming for himself good opinions. That which they have said in regard to the intellectual faculties applies equally to the moral faculties. There is for the soul a spontaneous culture, on which depends all the real progress in perfection.” SaidRealSoulCultureMoralOpinionProgressDependsCapableIntellectualPerfectionRegardDepthNotionPhilosopherFacultyInstructionSpontaneousPupilsTransmit Author:Joseph Marie, baron de Gerando
“I have some notions that have people conceiving of themselves as capable of changing the world.

“It used to be said in antislavery days that a people who would tacitly consent to the enslavement of 4,000,000 human beings were incapable of being just to each other, and I believe this same rule holds with regard to the injustice practiced by men towards women. So long as all men conspire to rob women of the citizen's right to perfect equality in all the privileges and immunities of our so-called "free" government, we can not expect these same men to be capable of perfect justice to each other.” PeopleMenBelieveHumansLongSaidGovernmentUsedI BelieveJusticeHuman BeingsPerfectCitizensCapableRegardInjusticePrivilegeEqualityUsed To BeIncapableCan NotConsentEnslavementImmunityFree Government Author:Susan B.

“Humanity today is rightly concerned about the ecological balance of tomorrow. It is important for assessments in this regard to be carried out prudently, in dialogue with experts and people of wisdom, uninhibited by ideological pressure to draw hasty conclusions, and above all with the aim of reaching agreement on a model of sustainable development capable of ensuring the well-being of all while respecting environmental balances.” PeopleWellsImportantTodayHumanityDevelopmentBalanceTomorrowCapableModelsDrawsConcernedPressureRegardAimEnvironmentalDialogueConclusionWell BeingExpertsReachingAgreementSustainabilityIdeologicalEcologicalAssessmentSustainable DevelopmentHastyEcological Balance Author:Pope Benedict XVI
“Both group effort and individual testimony flow from conviction as to the role of people on earth. In stewardship of the common heritage, a few simple beliefs recur: that all are indeed members of the same human family, that all share in responsibility for the others, that each is capable of responding directly to divine guidance. To seek to translate these into practical action with regard to soil or petroleum or the fish of the sea is not necessarily to do what is directly effective in changing society.” PeopleHumansActionEarthIndividualBeliefSimpleCommonEffortResponsibilityRolesGroupsSeaShareDivineMembersCapableFlowRegardEnvironmentalFishesConvictionPracticalsGuidanceSoilHeritageTranslateTestimonyStewardshipRespondingHuman FamilyPetroleumDivine GuidanceGroup Effort Author:Gilbert F.

“Here is an example to help you understand the efficacy of the Rosary. You remember the story of David who vanquished Goliath. What steps did the young Israelite take to overthrow the giant? He struck him in the middle of the forehead with a pebble from his sling. If we regard the Philistine as representing evil and all its powers: heresy, impurity, pride, we can consider the little stones from the sling capable of overthrowing the enemy as symbolizing the Aves of the Rosary.” IfsLittlesHelpingStoriesRememberYoungEvilStepsEnemyMiddleExamplePrideCapableStonesRegardGiantsHeresyForeheadsRepresentingPebblesEfficacyRosaryImpurityPhilistinesGoliath Author:Columba Marmion
