Wisdom Wednesday the First

"We stand now where two roads diverge. But unlike the roads in Robert Frost's familiar poem, they are not equally fair. The road we have long been traveling is deceptively easy, a smooth superhighway on which we progress with great speed, but at its end lies disaster. The other fork of the road—the one "less traveled by"—offers our last, our only chance to reach a destination that assures the preservation of the earth." — Rachel Carson

"Remember that happiness is a way of travel — not a destination." — Roy M. Goodman

"My address is like my shoes. It travels with me. I abide where there is a fight against wrong." —Mother Jones


"If you have knowledge, let others light their candles in it." — Margaret Fuller
