Dorothy Stang Quotations

There are things you do because they feel right and they make no sense and they make no money and it may be the real reason we are here: to love each other(and to eat each others cooking) and to say it was good!

Peasant people ... don't have a chance to share in the riches that the planet can offer because some people are taking off so much of the pleasures of this world, and there's only so much to go around.

I don't want to flee, nor do I want to abandon the battle of these farmers who live without any protection in the forest. They have the sacrosanct right to aspire to a better life on land where they can live and work with dignity while respecting the environment.

The death of the forest is the end of our life.

Blessed are the peacemakers, for they shall be called the children of God.
