Scott Russell Sanders: How to be the change

Graffiti in a Sacramento alley.
"If you begin by asking yourself how you can be sure of solving this or that global problem or creating this or that utopia, you'll soon give up. Instead, ask yourself what action most faithfully expresses your deepest values and affections, right here and now in this concrete situation, and you will always be able to act with courage and purpose. We make the path by walking."



– Scott Russell Sanders, from an interview in "ISLE: Interdisciplinary Studies in Literature and Environment," Spring 2013, published by Oxford University Press.
