Quotes by Michelle Dowd (?)

“For 99.9 percent of the time since our species came to be, we were hunters and foragers . . . We were bounded only by the Earth and the ocean and the sky.
—Carl Sagan”

“Our mother lets us wander anywhere we want on the Mountain, and has since the moment we got here. She doesn’t restrict where we go, nor ask us what time we will return, but she does tell us what to do if we run into trouble. Never put your hands or feet anywhere you can’t see. If you need to step over a log, step up on it, look, then step down.”
