Rivers are just as alive as you and me. They have a body called the catchment, the mouth and the delta; cells of water molecules; organs of wetlands and riparian zones; and like us, a circulatory system. We're inseparable from the waters of the world. We rely on these living bodies for our very survival. We're inseparable from the waters of the world.

Terry Tempest Williams
We are all, whether we admit it to ourselves or not, in a committed relationship with the natural world. We are part of its fabric. There can be no “us” without “it.” My work is an expression of this interconnectedness.
Jeanne K Simmons
