Hi folks,
One of my graduate students, Miriam Abraham, unearthed this Wallace
Stegner quote that is appropo to our planning dilemmas. The quote is
from The Sound of Mountain Water:
Angry as one may be at what heedless men have done and still do to that
noble habitat, one cannot be pessimistic about the West. This is the
native home of hope. When it fully learns that cooperation, not rugged
individualism, is the quality that most characterizes and preserves it,
then it will haveachieved itself and outlived its origins. Then it has a
chance to create a society to match its scenery.
Hmmmmmmm!
