Everything in the universe only exists because it is in relationship to everything else. A thousand fibers connect us with our fellow men and among those fibers, as sympathetic threads, our actions run as causes, and they come back to us as effects.вЂќ - Herman Melville For this reason it is hardly surprising that most of our happiness arises in the context of our relationships with others.вЂќ вЂ“ Tenzin Gyatso, 14th Dalai Lama Whether we like it or not, there is hardly a moment of our lives when we do not benefit from othersвЂ™ activities. We come into the world as the result of othersвЂ™ actions. Therefore, the only sensible and intelligent way of resolving differences and clashes of interests, whether between individuals or nations, is through dialogue.вЂќ вЂ“ Tenzin Gyatso, 14th Dalai Lama вЂњThe reality today is that we are all interdependent and have to co-exist on this small planet. вЂњI am saddened by how people treat one another and how we are so shut off from one another and how we judge one another, when the truth is, we are all one connected thing.вЂќ вЂ“ Ellen DeGeneres Our actions run as causes, and they come back to us as effects.вЂќ вЂ“ Herman Melville вЂњA thousand fibers connect us with our fellow men. вЂњI am a part of all that I have met.вЂќ вЂ“ Lord Tennyson The quality of the connections is the key to quality per se.вЂќ вЂ“ Charles Eames вЂњEventually everything connects вЂ“ people, ideas, objects. вЂњThe whole idea of compassion is based on a keen awareness of the interdependence of all these living beings, which are all part of one another, and all involved in one another.вЂќ вЂ“ Thomas Merton The land ethic simply enlarges the boundaries of the community to include soils, waters, plants, and animals, or collectively: the land.вЂќ вЂ“ Aldo Leopold

вЂњAll ethics so far evolved rest upon a single premise: that the individual is a member of a community of interdependent parts. вЂњThe more complex the network is, the more complex its pattern of interconnections, the more resilient it will be.вЂќ вЂ“ Fritjof Capra вЂњAll is connectedвЂ¦ no one thing can change by itself.вЂќ вЂ“ Paul Hawken Nobody is able to achieve this completely, but the striving for such achievement is in itself a part of the liberation and a foundation for inner security.вЂќ- Albert Einstein

Our task must be to free ourselves from this prison by widening our circle of compassion to embrace all living creatures and the whole of nature in its beauty. This delusion is a kind of prison for us, restricting us to our personal desires and to affection for a few persons nearest to us. He experiences himself, his thoughts and feelings as something separated from the rest - a kind of optical delusion of his consciousness. вЂњA human being is a part of the whole, called by us, вЂњUniverse,вЂќ a part limited in time and space. And my pride is from the life-throb of ages dancing in my blood this moment.вЂќ вЂ“ Rabindranath Tagore I feel my limbs are made glorious by the touch of this world of life. It is the same life that is rocked in the ocean-cradle of birth and of death, in ebb and in flow. It is the same life that shoots in joy through the dust of the earth in numberless blades of grass and breaks into tumultuous waves of leaves and flowers. вЂњThe same stream of life that runs through my veins night and day runs through the world and dances in rhythmic measures. Whatever we do to the web, we do to ourselves.вЂќ вЂ“ Chief Seattle We do not weave the web of life, we are merely a strand in it. вЂњAll things are connected like the blood that unites us. вЂњIn nature we never see anything isolated, but everything in connection with something else which is before it, beside it, under it and over it.вЂќ вЂ“ Johann Wolfgang von Goethe вЂњWhen one tugs at a single thing in nature, he finds it attached to the rest of the world.вЂќ вЂ“ John Muir вЂњI see a world in the future in which we understand that all life is related to us and we treat that life with great humility and respect.вЂќ вЂ“ David Suzuki If you go off into a far, far forest and get very quiet, youвЂ™ll come to understand that youвЂ™re connected with everything.вЂќ вЂ“ Alan Watts HereвЂ™s a selection of my favorite quotes on being connected.
