I would say that there exists a thousand
unbreakable links between each of us and everything else, and that our dignity
and our chances are one. The farthest star and the mud at our feet are a
family; and there is no decency or sense in honoring one thing, or a few
things, and then closing the list. The pine tree, the leopard, the Platte
River, and ourselves — we are at risk together, or we are on our way to a
sustainable world together, we are each other's destiny.
— Mary Oliver
