Jacqueline Novogratz Quotes

It turns out that all life is interconnected with all other life.

Humankind has not woven the web of life. We are but one thread within it. Whatever we do to the web, we do to ourselves. All things are bound together. All things connect.

What is essential - the one thing that could stop us being coarsened to other lives - is that we feel a great, living wave of animal life all around us, covering the earth.

I love to think that animals and humans and plants and fishes and trees and stars and the moon are all connected.

I don't believe in the separation between mankind and nature. Mankind is nature.

This We Know. All Things Are Connected

We are the living planet!

Everything is connected to everything else.

I am two with nature.

We forget that the water cycle and the life cycle are one.

In this world, and all the things we have going on, we're all human beings.

It is funny how we talk about nature as this separate entity when we are nature, and nature is us.

You must stop seeing God as separate from you, and you as separate from each other. [...] Nothing exists in the universe that is separate from anything else. Everything is intrinsically connected, irrevocably interdependent, interactive, interwoven into the fabric of all of life.

We are all an integral part of the chain of life.

We are all part of the ecosystem.

When we try to pick out anything by itself we find it hitched to everything else in the universe ... The whole wilderness is unity and interrelation, is alive and familiar, full of humanity. The very stones seem talkative, sympathetic, brotherly.
