'We are talking to ourselves. We are not talking to the rivers, we are not listening to the wind and stars. We have broken the great conversation. By breaking that conversation we have shattered the universe. All the disasters that are happening now are a consequence of that spiritual 'autism'.

Thomas Berry (Nov. 9, 1914 – June 1, 2009)

He pleaded for a biocentric instead of an anthropocentric worldview and for a legal system based on the laws of the earth. #Earthjustice #ThomasBerry
