Text Quotes
Enlightenment is a group activity  (Charles Eisenstein Quotes) Joint consumption doesn’t create intimacy  (Charles Eisenstein Quotes) The force of love, the force of reunion is unstoppable  (Charles Eisenstein Quotes) We have to believe in a more beautiful world in order to serve it  (Charles Eisenstein Quotes) Trust your intuition and be guided by love  (Charles Eisenstein Quotes) How do we change the world? Change the story  (Charles Eisenstein Quotes) The state of interbeing is a vulnerable state. It is the vulnerability of the naive altruist, of the trusting lover, of the unguarded sharer. To enter it, one must leave behind the seeming shelter of a control-based life, protected by walls of cynicism, judgment, and blame  (Charles Eisenstein Quotes) Addiction, self-sabotage, procrastination, laziness, rage, chronic fatigue, and depression are all ways that we withhold our full participation in the program of life we are offered. When the conscious mind cannot find a reason to say no, the unconscious says no in its own way  (Charles Eisenstein Quotes) The holistic acupuncturist and the sea turtle rescuer may not be able to explain the feeling, ‘We are serving the same thing,’ but they are. Both are in service to an emerging story of the People that is the defining mythology of a new kind of civilization  (Charles Eisenstein Quotes) The regime of control tightens inexorably in our schools, many of which now have video cameras, police patrols, chain-link fences, random unannounced locker searches, metal detectors, drug-sniffing dogs, networks of informants, undercover police posing as students, and a comprehensive system of passes so that there is a record of each student’s authorized whereabouts at all times. What a perfect preparation for life in a prison or a totalitarian society!  (Charles Eisenstein Quotes) The cynic thinks that he is being practical and that the hopeful person is not. It is actually the other way around. Cynicism is paralyzing, while the naïve person tries what the cynic says is impossible and sometimes succeeds.  (Charles Eisenstein Quotes) More than a mere alternative strategy, regenerative agriculture represents a fundamental shift in our culture’s relationship to nature.  (Charles Eisenstein Quotes) The logic is backwards. Genius is the result of doing what you love, not a prerequisite for it.  (Charles Eisenstein Quotes) The primary method by which governments increase their control is by creating fear  (Charles Eisenstein Quotes) A miracle is an invitation into a new story  (Charles Eisenstein Quotes) The cynic thinks that he is being practical and that the hopeful person is not. It is actually the other way around. Cynicism is paralyzing, while the naïve person tries what the cynic says is impossible and sometimes succeeds  (Charles Eisenstein Quotes) The gift economy represents a shift from consumption to contribution, transaction to trust, scarcity to abundance and isolation to community  (Charles Eisenstein Quotes) We have to create miracles. A miracle is not the intersession of an external divine agency in violation of the laws of physics. A miracle is simply something that is impossible from an old story but possible from within a new one. It is an expansion of what is possible  (Charles Eisenstein Quotes) In a gift economy, the more you give, the richer you are  (Charles Eisenstein Quotes) How beautiful can life be? We hardly dare imagine it  (Charles Eisenstein Quotes) Ultimately, work on self is inseperable from work in the world. Each mirrors the other; each is a vehicle for the other. When we change ourselves, our values and actions change as well. When we do work in the world, internal issues arise that we must face or be rendered ineffective  (Charles Eisenstein Quotes) Even the most thorough change happens once choice at a time  (Charles Eisenstein Quotes) The world is on fire! Why am I sitting in front of my computer? It is because I don’t have a fire extinguisher for the world, and there isn’t a global 911 to call  (Charles Eisenstein Quotes) The present convergence of crises––in money, energy, education, health, water, soil, climate, politics, the environment, and more––is a birth crisis, expelling us from the old world into a new  (Charles Eisenstein Quotes) When we must pay the true price for the depletion of nature’s gifts, materials will become more precious to us, and economic logic will reinforce, and not contradict, our heart’s desire to treat the world with reverence and, when we receive nature’s gifts, to use them well  (Charles Eisenstein Quotes) The financial crisis we are facing today arises from the fact that there is almost no more social, cultural, natural, and spiritual capital left to convert into money  (Charles Eisenstein Quotes) No one’s ever completely broken. It’s just a matter of how much has to fall apart before the ember of life is exposed to air  (Charles Eisenstein Quotes) When both sides of a controversy revel in the defeat and humiliation of the other side, in fact they are on the same side: the side of war  (Charles Eisenstein Quotes) We are all here to contribute our gifts toward something greater than ourselves, and will never be content unless we are  (Charles Eisenstein Quotes) Contemporaneous with the financial crisis we have an ecological crisis and a health crisis. They are intimately interlinked. We cannot convert much more of the earth into money, or much more of our health into money, before the basis of life itself is threatened  (Charles Eisenstein Quotes)
