“Somehow then you tell something that matters very much to you to people who don't care, their disinterest spoils things - makes the cheap.”
H. M. Hoover

“They walked over land once forested for centuries. Farming had destroyed the trees; cities had destroyed the farms; time had destroyed the cities. The land remained, slowly covering its degradation with new plant life.”
Helen Mary Hoover

“Yess,” it hissed. “You do well to remind me. You matter, young human. I may not understand why, but there is a reason you came to this world.” It paused. “So I believe. You have reason to fear us, yet you came back. I will listen to you.” Cody thought the skipper might not understand about corporations and money. Since he didn't understand such things himself, he decided to omit that part. The skippers probably knew better than he did how many of their kind had died since humans came to their world, so he didn't want to talk about that either, or about the corporation's plans for the skippers' future. Instead he began by telling the skipper about the laws of the Federation of Worlds.”
H. M. Hoover, Only Child
