Ted Conover
“Instead of an American suburb circa the 1970's, I was headed in winter, to the far margins to live among the self-sufficient, the alienated, the smokers, the wounded, the dreamers and the hermits.”
Ted Conover, Cheap Land Colorado: Off-Gridders at America's Edge

“As we encounter each other, we see our diversity — of background, race, ethnicity, belief – and how we handle that diversity will have much to say about whether we will in the end be able to rise successfully to the great challenges we face today.”
Dan Smith, The State of the World Atlas
