The planet doesn’t need more successful people. The planet desperately needs more peacemakers, healers, restorers, storytellers & lovers of all kinds

"Person with a patch-covered backpack standing on a mountain trail at sunrise, overlooking a lush valley, symbolizing meaningful travel and reflection — quote promoting peacemakers, healers, and storytellers by Voluntouring.org.

The quote in the image is widely attributed to David W. Orr, an American environmentalist, educator, and writer. It comes from his book “Earth in Mind: On Education, Environment, and the Human Prospect” (1994).

The full original quote is:

“The planet does not need more ‘successful people.’ But it does desperately need more peacemakers, healers, restorers, storytellers, and lovers of every kind.”
