Our task before us is to build the earth

Teilhard de Chardin | April 2001 (Vol. XIV, No. 4)

When one views the planet Earth from outer space and sees no national boundaries, the prophecy of Teilhard de Chardin is compelling:

The age of nations is past. That task before us, if we would not perish, is to build the earth ... to help hear her wounds.

 

~ Teilhard de Chardin
