Quote

With all the goodwill and local initiative in the world, we are not about to rewild anything until we change our way of thinking about our place in the creaturely world.

There is hope in dreams, imagination, and in the courage of those who wish to make those dreams a reality.

We promise in proportion to our hopes, and we deliver in proportion to our fears.

We are all dreamers creating the next world, the next beautiful world for ourselves and for our children.

We promise according to our hopes and perform according to our fears.

For better or worse, we live in possible worlds as much as actual ones. We are cursed by that characteristically human guilt and regret about what might have been in the past. But that may be the cost for our ability to hope and plan for what might be in the future.

Hope lies in dreams, in imagination, and in the courage of those who dare to make dreams into reality.

If we hope for what we are not likely to possess, we act and think in vain, and make life a greater dream and shadow than it really is.

We live because of the dreams.

So many of our dreams at first seem impossible, then they seem improbable, and then, when we summon the will, they soon become inevitable.
