The Power To Create




Man has been endowed with reason,
with the power to create,
so that he can add to
what he's been given.
 But up to now he hasn't
been a creator,
 only a destroyer.
 Forests keep disappearing,
 rivers dry up,
wild life's become extinct, 
the climate's ruined
and the land grows poorer
 and uglier every day. 
Anton Chekhov  
 
A society is defined 
not only by what it creates,
 but by what it refuses to destroy.
John Sawhill
