Quotation of the Day for December 20, 2010



"Excellencies, the goddess Ixchel would probably tell you that a tapestry is the result of the skilful interlacing of many threads. I am convinced that 20 years from now, we will admire the policy tapestry that you have woven together and think back fondly to Cancun and the inspiration of Ixchel."

- Christiana Figueres, executive secretary of the U.N. Framework Convention on Climate Change, invoking the ancient jaguar goddess Ixchel in her opening statement to delegates gathered in Cancun, Mexico.
