Sallie’s Comments on Spiritual Ecology

November 17th, 2013

Wendell Berry is my hero! An academic who went back to farming, and yes, a prophet. He slams the stock market, war, modern inventions, even human genius wanting instead to be a true human being, focusing on “the intelligence of the heart that we gather from the world, from the creatures, from the angels of inspiration, from the dead.” I’ve loved his poetry for years. And he’s right. I want to be a true human being with him.  (p. 78-82)
