“One thing alone I charge you. As you live, believe in life!
Always human beings will live and progress to greater,
broader and fuller life. The only possible death is to
lose belief in this truth simply because the great end
comes slowly, because time is long.” Dr. W.E.B. Dubois

Quote by Wangari Maathai

Posted on February 20, 2011 by preciousmomentliving
“We can work together for a better world with men and women of goodwill,
those who radiate the intrinsic goodness of humankind.
To do so effectively, the world needs a global ethic with values
which give meaning to life experiences and, more than religious institutions
and dogmas, sustain the non-material dimension of humanity.
Mankind’s universal values of love, compassion, solidarity,
caring and tolerance should form the basis for this global ethic which
should permeate culture, politics, trade, religion and philosophy.
It should also permeate the extended family of the United Nations.”
Wangari Maathai
