"The prophetic imagination entices us when it proclaims that it is possible for humans to live just and fulfilling lives without destroying the planet. The prophetic imagination is transformative when it allows us to believe that it is possible to live in sustainable, harmonious relationships with all of God's creation. The prophetic imagination is a threat to the royal consciousness when it offers us even the possibility of living and acting in ways that will replace the destructive empire with a better way of life."

"If you want to build a ship, don't drum up people to collect wood and don't assign them tasks and work, but rather teach them to long for the endless immensity of the sea."
