We cannot make a blade of grass. Yet there is liable not to be a blade of grass in the future unless it is accepted, protected, and fostered by the human.
Thomas Berry, D.P., Ph.D. (1914-2009) was a Catholic Priest,
geologian (“Earth Scholar”) and author of
The Sacred Universe: Earth, Spirituality,
and Religion in the Twenty-first Century
“That is where we’re at now. We’ve become a force of nature, and we can either continue to destroy or continue to build up. One thing Thomas Berry says is that all we need to do is leave nature alone, and it will bounce back. It’s resilient. So that is my favorite quote from Thomas Berry.”
