"Before the tool that forcesenergy outward, we made the tool that brings energy home. Prior to the predominance of sticks, swords, and the Hero's killing tools, our ancestors' greatest invention was the container: the basket of wild oats, the medicine bundle, the nest made of your own hair, the home, the shrine, the place that contains whatever is sacred.
The recipient, the holder, the story. The bag of stars."
- Ursula K. Le Guin with an introduction by Donna Haraway
