The dead have been awakened — shall I sleep? The worlds at war with tyrants — shall I crouch? the harvests ripe — and shall I pause to reap? I slumber not; the thorn is in my couch; Each day a trumpet soundeth in mine ear, its echo in my heart. – Lord (George Gordon) Byron
No phenomenon can be isolated, but has repercussions through every aspect of our lives. We are learning that we are a fundamental part of natures ecosystems. – Arthur Erickson
