Paolo Soleri's Glossary of Terms |
Self-Reliance
Self-Reliance is utopia
which has dropped its pernicious garments. It is all that
utopia should grope for. A non-parasitic agency attempting
to render to reality more than what reality is willing to give.
Self-reliance is a bartering engine
that should be fueled not just by opportunism
but by opportunism with the long reach that only love, compassion,
knowledge can sustain : the opportune way of becoming
among the becoming, not in spite of it. |
