"Just as physics has discovered that the slightest event affects the whole cosmos, so we begin to discover in our collective life that no man is an island, that life on this planet rests upon mutual interdependence, and that any event, any place – no matter how isolated – may have communal and internatonal reverberations."
Return of the Goddess - Edward C. Whitmont, MD
