“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
