Ralph Waldo Emerson once asked what we would do if the stars only came out once

Ralph Waldo Emerson once asked what we would do if the stars only came out once every thousand years? No one would sleep that night, of course. We would be ecstatic, delirious, made rapturous by the glory of God. Instead the stars come out every night, and we watch television.
Paul Hawken (1946– ) Environmentalist, Entrepreneur, Journalist, and Author
