Happy Birthday, David Brower.
…
We may see that progress is not
the accelerating speed with which we multiply
and subdue the earth nor the growing number
of things we possess and cling to.
It is a way along which to search for truth,
to find serenity and love and reverence for life,
to be part of an enduring harmony,
celebrating the wildness within us.
- David R. Brower
