"Just as the blessings of God are unutterably great, so their acquisition requires much hardship and toil undertaken with hope and faith."

Previous Quote

A sustainable economy represents nothing less than a higher social order one as concerned with future generations as with our own, and more focused on the health of the planet and the poor than on material acquisitions and military might. While it is a fundamentally new endeavor, with many uncertainties, it is far less risky than continuing with business as usual.

— Lester R. Brown
