Ralph Metzner
“When the anthropologist asked the Kwakiutl for a map of their coast, they told him stories:

"Here? Salmon gather. Here? Sea otter camps. Here seal sleep. Here we say body covered with mouths."

How can a place have a name? A man, a woman may have a name, but they die.

We are a story until we die. Then our names are very dangerous.

A place is a story happening many times.”
Ralph Metzner, Green Psychology: Transforming our Relationship to the Earth

Arne Næss
“The history of cruelty inflicted in the name of morals has convinced me that the increase of identification might achieve what moralizing cannot: beautiful actions.”
Arne Næss
