(Lee is) a joyful raconteur, a woman with grit, grace and humor. Lee is the desert's lover. Her voice is a torch in the wilderness. |
[I]f you know wilderness in the way that you know love, you would be unwilling to let it go. We are talking about the body of the beloved, not real estate. |
Faith is the centerpiece of a connected life. It allows us to live by the grace of invisible strands. It is a belief in a wisdom superior to our own. Faith becomes a teacher in the absence of fact. |
Landscape shapes culture |
Our sense of community and compassionate intelligence must be extended to all life forms, plants, animals, rocks, rivers, and human beings. This is the story of our past and it will be the story of our future. |
To be whole. To be complete. Wildness reminds us what it means to be human, what we are connected to rather than what we are separate from. |
We can try to kill all that is native, string it up by its hind legs for all to see, but spirit howls and wildness endures. |
