Quotes
"I do not want my house to be walled on all sides or my windows to be stuffed. I want the cultures of all lands to be blown about my house as freely as possible. But, I refuse to be blown off my feet by any."
-M. Gandhi
"Traveling makes one modest--you see what a tiny place you occupy in the world."
-Flaubert
"The term 'development' defines the unquestionable inferiority of two-thirds of the world's people, and also defines their only rational societal goal to be a project of catching up with the industrialized societies of the west.
This belief in only one path to development, exemplified by western industrialism, is comfortable for and largely unquestioned by many people in western societies but is no more true than the earlier-held belief that the sun orbits the earth. It ignores the fact that different societies have different histories, geographies, cultures, institutions, and conceptions of the good life, and therefore need not follow the same path." (David Faust, 'Questioning Development')
