QUESTIONS WITH 100% CORRECT
ANSWERS
When we started the semester, everyone was asked to get into a new mode of learning
that I described as Volver A No Saber. So, what does that phrase mean? - Answer
Return to not knowing

"We reached the old wolf in time to watch a fierce green fire dying in her eyes. I realized
then, and have known ever since, that there was something new to me in those eyes
something known only to her and to the mountain. . . . ; I thought that because fewer
wolves meant more deer, that no wolves would mean hunters' paradise. But after
seeing the green fire die, I sensed that neither the wolf nor the mountain agreed with
such a view." . . . . "We all strive for safety, prosperity, comfort, long life, and dullness.
The deer strives with his supple legs, the cowman with trap and poison, the statesman
with pen, the most of us with machines, votes, and dollars, but it all comes to the same
thing: peace in our time. A measure of success in this is all well enough, and perhaps is
a requisite to objective thinking, but too much safety seems to yield only danger in the
long run, Perhaps this is behind Thoreau's dictum: In w - Answer Aldo Leopold

"As I advanced, his teeth showed and his mouth wrinkled to strike. The rumbling rose to
a direct snarl. His flat head swayed low and wickedly as a reptile's above the floor. I was
the most loved object in his universe, but the past was fully alive in him now. Its
shadows were whispering in his mind. I knew he was not bluffing. If I made another step
he would strike." - Answer Loren Eiseley

"True life was far greater than the existence of the physical and mental, logical or
intellectual. It was not life outside of the self that mattered so much as· the life beyond
the self. And so life at its fullest was to be found, almost entirely, in the realm of spirit.
Each and every lesson . . . taught led ultimately to a greater understanding of the
guiding forces behind creation, of the Creator." - Answer Tom Brown Jr.

"We see ourselves as the culmination and the end, and if we do indeed consider our
passing, we think that sunlight will go with us and the earth be dark. We are the end.
For us continents rose and fell, for us the waters and the air were mastered, for us the
great living web has pulsated and grown more intricate." . . . . . "Perhaps the old road
through the marsh should tell us. We are one of many appearances of the thing called
Life; we are not its perfect image, for it has no image except Life, and Life is
multitudinous and emergent in the stream of time." - Answer Loren Eiseley

, "Conservation is getting nowhere because it is incompatible with our Abrahamic concept
of land. We abuse land because we regard it as a commodity belonging to us. When we
see land as a community to which we belong, we may begin to use it with love and
respect. There is no other way for land to survive the impact of mechanized man, nor for
us to reap from it the esthetic harvest it is capable, under science, of contributing to
culture. That land is a community is the basic concept of ecology, but that land is to be
loved and respected is an extension of ethics. That land yields a cultural harvest is a
fact long known, but latterly often forgotten." - Answer Aldo Leopold

'The Vision Quest is not a onetime event, but a continuing process,' he said, 'a process
that you should seek throughout life.'" - Answer Tom Brown Jr.

"We see ourselves as the culmination and the end, and if we do indeed consider our
passing, we think that sunlight will go with us and the earth be dark. We are the end.
For us continents rose and fell, for us the waters and the air were mastered, for us the
great living web has pulsated and grown more intricate." - Answer Antrhopocentric

economic, and social impacts of way in which most suburbs were designed and built in
