Wendell Berry Quotes About Resurrection

Quotes about: Resurrection

• So, friends, every day do something that won't compute...Give your approval to all you cannot understand...Ask the questions that have no answers. Put your faith in two inches of humus that will build under the trees every thousand years...Laugh. Be joyful though you have considered all the facts....Practice resurrection.

• Be like the fox
  who makes more tracks than necessary,
  some in the wrong direction.
  Practice resurrection.

  Wendell Berry (2012). “New Collected Poems”, p.174, Counterpoint Press

• The country where he lives is haunted by the ghost of an old forest. In the cleared fields where he gardens and pastures his horses it stood once, and will return. There will be a resurrection of the wild. Already it stands in wait at the pasture fences.

  Wendell Berry (2012). “New Collected Poems”, p.93, Counterpoint Press

• Go with your love to the fields.
  Lie down in the shade. Rest your head
  in her lap. Swear allegiance
  to what is nighest your thoughts.
  
  As soon as the generals and the politicos
  can predict the motions of your mind,
  lose it. Leave it as a sign
  to mark the false trail, the way
  you didn't go.
  
  Be like the fox
  who makes more tracks than necessary,
  some in the wrong direction.
  Practice resurrection.
