“The natural world around us shows the way to relief. All of life is maintained by the sun, by the air, by water, by the earth and its resources. And to whom was the sun given? To everyone. If there is any one thing that people do have in common, it is the gift of sunlight. But as the early Christians said, "If the sun were not hung so high, someone would have claimed it long ago."” PeopleIfsWorldWayLongSaidShowsEarthChristianLife IsEnergyGivenWaterNaturalCommonSunOne ThingAirResourcesAlternativesReliefSunlightLong AgoHungNatural World Book:Eberhard Arnold: Writings Selected with an Introduction Source: Eberhard Arnold: Writings Selected with an Introduction

“When Tony Benn became a minister in the 1960s -- and I think this must be apocryphal -- he had a huge map of Britain hung upside down in his office, so the channel was at the top and Scotland was at the bottom and, apparently, he said, "This is how we need to look at this country, with the money and the power draining by force of gravity out of the south east." That was a great idea. I rather liked him for that. I don't know if it's actually true or not.” IfsThinkingKnowsNeedsLooksSaidIdeasCountryForceHugeOfficeSouthBottomEastMinistersBritainMapsGravityHungScotland1960sGreat IdeaUpside DownDraining Author:Neal Ascherson
