Quote by Mahatma Gandhi

What we are doing to the forests of the world is but a mirror reflection of what we are doing to ourselves and to one another.

Summary

This quote by Chris Maser highlights the interconnectedness between human actions and their consequences. By destroying forests, we are ultimately harming ourselves and society as a whole. It serves as a reminder that our treatment of nature is indicative of our treatment of each other. Just as we exploit and neglect our natural surroundings, we similarly exploit and neglect one another. It suggests that the destruction of the environment is not a separate issue, but rather a reflection of the indifference and disregard that exists within human relationships.

Other countries drink to get drunk, and this is accepted by everyone; in France, drunkenness is a consequence, never an intention. A drink is felt as the spinning out of a pleasure, not as the necessary cause of an effect which is sought: wine is not only a philter, it is also the leisurely act of drinking.

Palin was a political Hail Mary, a long bomb in the closing minutes of a game that John McCain and Co. were certain to lose. They didn't care if she had the policy or political or emotional capacity to serve as vice president, let alone president. They were willing to drive the country off a cliff, if that's what it took to win.

I will not adopt that ungenerous and impolitic custom so common with novel writers, of degrading by their contemptuous censure the very performances, to the number of which they are themselves addingÂ—joining with their greatest enemies in bestowing the harshest epithets on such works, and scarcely ever permitting them to be read by their own heroine, who, if she accidentally take up a novel, is sure to turn over its insipid leaves with disgust.
