Change is no threat to culture (Wade Davis Quotes)
Heroes are never perfect, but they’re brave, they’re authentic, they’re courageous, determined, discreet, and they’ve got grit. (Wade Davis Quotes)
All cultures through all time have constantly been engaged in a dance with new possibilities for life. Change is the one constant in human history. (Wade Davis Quotes)
What could be more lonely than to be enveloped in silence, to be the last of your people to speak your native tongue, to have no way to pass on the wisdom of the elders, to anticipate the promise of the children. This tragic fate is indeed the plight of someone somewhere roughly every two weeks. (Wade Davis Quotes)

(Wade Davis Quotes)
Mining in BC’s Sacred Headwaters is like drilling for oil in the Sistine Chapel (Wade Davis Quotes)

Cultural survival is not about preservation, sequestering indigenous peoples in enclaves like some sort of zoological specimens. Change itself does note destroy a culture. All societies are constantly evolving. Indeed a culture survives when it has enough confidence in its past and enough say in its future to maintain its spirit and essence through all the changes it will inevitably undergo (Wade Davis Quotes)
