"Divorced from the cosmos, from nature, from society and from each other, we have become fractured and fragmented."― Daisaku Ikeda Topic(s): NatureMore From Daisaku Ikeda"In the past, human society provided encouragement and opportunity for people to extend support to each other, especially in highly stressful situations.""I have for some time urged that a nuclear abolition summit to mark the effective end of the nuclear era be convened in Hiroshima and Nagasaki on the 70th anniversary of the bombings of those cities, with the participation of national leaders and representatives of global civil society.""Likewise, education can direct people toward good or evil ends. When education is based on a fundamentally distorted worldview, the results are horrific."More In Nature"Nothing happens to any man that he is not formed by nature to bear."― Marcus Aurelius"We don’t do things we aren’t good at by nature. I wouldn’t play basketball because I’m only 5′ 1″. Find what you enjoy – whether it’s racing, flying a helicopter, being a doctor, or stitching clothes together. Once you’ve done that, you have the passion you need."― Danica Patrick"Ideas devour the ages as men are devoured by their passions. When man is cured, human nature will cure itself perhaps."― Honore de Balzac
