All that is created reflects the image of God - not just human beings
Katharine Jefferts Schori, Jul 26, 2008
Do not say, ‘This is a stone and not God.’ God forbid! Rather, all existence is God and the stone is a thing pervaded by divinity.
Rabbi Moshe Cordovero
Language can connect us to the moment-by-moment process through which God creates all that exists. We can use our power of speaking in a revolutionary way - to speak ourselves and the world toward holiness.
Rabbi Marcia Prager, The Way of Blessing
Create through us a new sense of holiness which touches and transforms the duties of the citizen, that we may create in this time and on this earth the building stones of a human city – a city of happiness and peace which is ever more and more like unto that perfect city not made with human hands.
William Brooks Rice (Unitarian Universalist, minister, chair of the Universalist and Unitarian Joint Merger Commission)
All kinds of marvelous things go on. I don’t see how anyone who has looked, and seen, can do and ought say, ‘where I stand, wherever I stand, I am on holy ground.’
