#quotes #richard-li

What exists is a godly existence, a divine existence. God not as a person but as a presence certainly exists. But to understand that presence, you have to understand your own inner presence first, because it is from there that you can take off, it is from there that you can have the first glimpse of what godliness is. If you have not known yourself you will never know God. ~Rajneesh

Only when the last tree has died and the last river been poisoned and the last fish been caught will we realise we cannot eat money. ~Native American Proverb
