David George Haskell
“But, to love nature and to hate humanity is illogical. Humanity is part of the whole. To truly love the world is also to love human ingenuity and playfulness. Nature does not need to be cleansed of human artifacts to be beautiful or coherent. Yes, we should be less greedy, untidy, wasteful, and shortsighted. But let us not turn responsibility into self-hatred. Our biggest failing is, after all, lack of compassion for the world. Including ourselves.”
David George Haskell

Anthony Marra
“Turning I would to I did is the grammar of growing up.”
Anthony Marra, The Tsar of Love and Techno

Viet Thanh Nguyen
“I could live without television, but not without books.”
Viet Thanh Nguyen, The Sympathizer

“What’s the point of doing all that work,” Tesch asks, “if no one sees it?” “It makes me happy. It’s peaceful, spending hours working on it. It doesn’t really matter to me if anyone else sees it.”
Emily St. John Mandel, Station Eleven

Anthony Marra
“You remember how Mom had that embroidered pillow? When she got upset, she’d shout into it and no one would hear her. That’s Facebook.”
Anthony Marra, The Tsar of Love and Techno
