The interdependency of humankind, the relevance of
relationship, the sacredness of creation is ancient,
ancient wisdom.
-- Rebecca
Adamson
*
The indigenous understanding has its basis of spirituality
in a recognition of the interconnectedness and interdependence
of all living things, a holistic and balanced view
of the world. All things are bound together. All things
connect. What happens to the Earth happens to the
children of the earth. Humankind has not woven the
web of life; we are but one thread. Whatever we do
to the web, we do to ourselves.
-- Rebecca

The
good we secure for ourselves is precarious and uncertain
until it is secured for all of us and incorporated
into our common life.
-- Jane
Addams
We
have learned to say that the good must be extended
to all of society before it can be held secure by
any one person or any one class. But we have not yet
learned to add to that statement, that unless all
[people] and all classes contribute to a good, we
cannot even be sure that it is worth having.
-- Jane
Addams

[People]
may be said to resemble not the bricks of which a
house is built, but the pieces of a picture puzzle,
each differing in shape, but matching the rest, and
thus bringing out the picture.
-- Felix
Adler

if
globalization is to realise its potential as a force
for good, we have to look more closely at the means
by which we handle our growing interdependence. We
do not have a world government, but we do have an
increasingly complex network of institutions that
are concerned with global governance. They are central
to our future and international human rights law,
-- Gro
Brundtland
