"Recognising that we can choose the story we live from can be liberating; finding a good story to take part in adds to our sense of purpose and aliveness"- Joanna Macy, Active Hope: How to Face the Mess We're in Without Going Crazy

"[Hope is] an axe you break down doors with in an emergency; because hope should shove you out the door, because it will take everything you have to steer the future away from endless war, from the annihilation of the earth’s treasures and the grinding down of poor and marginal. Hope just means another world might be possible, not promised” - Rebecca Solnit, Hope in the Dark: Untold Histories, Wild Possibilities
