Thomas Moore, Care of the Soul: A Guide for Cultivating Depth and Sacredness in Everyday Life

Diane Ackerman, A Natural History of the Senses

George Monbiot
“Thinking like ethical people, dressing like ethical people, decorating our homes like ethical people makes not a damn of difference unless we also behave like ethical people.”
