Love vs. Hate

July 12, 2022 by Nadine Gordon

“It is hard for me to understand a culture that not only hates and fights his brothers but even attacks Nature and abuses her.

Man must love all creation or he will love none of it.

Love is something you and I must have.

We must have it because our spirit feeds upon it.

Without love our self-esteem weakens.

Without it our courage fails.

Without love we can no longer look out confidently at the world.

Instead, we turn inwardly and begin to feed on our own personalities and little by little,

we destroy ourselves.”

Chief Dan George
