Touch the earth, love the earth, honour the earth, her plains,
her valleys, her hills, and her seas; rest your spirit in her solitary places.
Henry Beston
You are always picking up odd-shaped stones, pebbles and fossils,
saying that you do this because it pleases you, but I know better.
Deep inside you there must be an awareness of the rock power, of the spirits in them,
otherwise you would not pick them up and fondle them as you do.
Lame Deer, Lame Deer: Seeker of Visions
You can bury a lot of troubles digging in the dirt.
Unknown
Just as a prism of glass mitres light and casts a coloured braid, a
garden sings sweet incantations the human heart strains to hear.
Hiding in every flower, in every leaf, in every twig and bough, are
reflections of the God who once walked with us in Eden.
Tonia Triebwasser, The Color of Grace
You must teach your children that the ground beneath their feet is the ashes of your grandfathers.
So that they will respect the
land, tell your children that the earth is rich with the lives of
our kin.
Teach your children what we have taught our children, that the earth is our mother.
Whatever befalls the earth befalls
the sons of the earth.
If men spit upon the ground, they spit upon themselves.
Native American Wisdom
To the illumined man or woman, a clod of dirt, a stone, and gold are the same.
