Quiara Alegría Hudes
“If you're fluent in a language there's a place you belong.”
Quiara Alegría Hudes, My Broken Language

Rachel Carson
“We are rightly appalled by the genetic effects of radiation; how then, can we be indifferent to the same effect in chemicals that we disseminate widely in our environment?”
Rachel Carson, Silent Spring

Robin Wall Kimmerer
“Ceremony is a vehicle for belonging—to a family, to a people, and to the land.”
Robin Wall Kimmerer, Braiding Sweetgrass: Indigenous Wisdom, Scientific Knowledge, and the Teachings of Plants

Quiara Alegría Hudes
“Language was not what connected us as a family. A dinner table ritual, where people gather to discuss news of the day, was not at the heart of how we communicated. Bodies were the mother tongue at Abuela’s, with Spanish second and English third. Dancing and ass-slapping, palmfuls of rice, ponytail-pulling and wound-dressing, banging a pot to the clave beat. Hands didn’t get lost in translation. Hips bridged gaps where words failed.”
Quiara Alegría Hudes, My Broken Language

Jane Goodall
“Hope is often misunderstood. People tend to think that it is simply passive wishful thinking: I hope something will happen but I’m not going to do anything about it. This is indeed the opposite of real hope, which requires action and engagement.”
Jane Goodall, The Book of Hope: A Survival Guide for Trying Times
