Let your spirit and your virtue serve the sense of the earth, my brethren: and the value of all things shall be established by you anew!

Remain faithful to the earth, and do not believe those who speak to you of other-worldly hopes!

You are not something that is a visitor on the earth and doesn't belong here. You are the earth.

Live in each season as it passes; breathe the air, drink the drink, taste the fruit, and resign yourself to the influence of the earth.

Live lightly, love deeply, and leave gentle footprints upon the earth.

Now I see the secret of making the best person: it is to grow in the open air and to eat and sleep with the earth.

Live lightly upon the earth with a grateful heart.

Walk as if you are kissing the Earth with your feet.

Radiate peace wherever you walk upon this earth.

The earth is a sacred stage for the evolution of spirit.

As the earth patiently bears those who dig into her bosom, so should one patiently endure the insults of the ignorant. (Kural 151)

Trees are poems that the earth writes upon the sky. We fell them down and turn them into paper, that we may record our emptiness.

For when you seek gain you are but a root that clings to the earth and sucks at her breast. Surely the fruit cannot say to the root, 'Be like me, ripe and full and ever giving of your abundance.'

And when the earth shall claim your limbs, then shall you truly dance.

The earth would die if the sun stopped kissing her. So too the soul withers without divine adoration.

The lover of God sleeps upon the bare earth and dreams of palaces of light.

Walk as if you are kissing the Earth with your feet.

When we touch the earth with awareness, we heal ourselves and we heal the planet.

The Earth is not outside of us; we are the Earth walking upon herself.

Let your heart smile as you walk upon the earth.

The earth sustains all creatures—the saint and the sinner—without a single complaint.

We do not inherit the earth from our ancestors; we borrow it from our children.

Our greatest responsibility is to be good ancestors.
