warmly invite you to the
Peace Place Gathering
WEDNESDAY,
7th March, 2012
Topic : 'One Foot in the Wilderness'
A human life, I think, should be well rooted in some spot of a native land, where it may get the love of a tender kinship for the face of the earth, for the labours men go forth to, for the sounds and accents that haunt it, for whatever will give that early home a familiar unmistakeable difference amidst the future widening of knowledge. The best introduction to astronomy is to think of the nightly heavens as a little lot of stars belonging to one's own homestead.
George Eliot.
