Edward Abbey
“Anarchism is democracy taken seriously.”
Edward Abbey

Cormac McCarthy
“Maybe it's not logical. I don't know. I don't care. I've been asked didnt I think it odd that I should be present to witness the death of everything and I do think it's odd but that doesnt mean it's not so. Someone has to be here.”
Cormac McCarthy, The Sunset Limited

David Graeber
“A revolution on a world scale will take a very long time. But it is also possible to recognize that it is already starting to happen. The easiest way to get our minds around it is to stop thinking about revolution as a thing — “the” revolution, the great cataclysmic break—and instead ask “what is revolutionary action?” We could then
suggest: revolutionary action is any collective action which rejects, and therefore confronts, some form of power or domination and in doing so, reconstitutes social relations—even within the collectivity—in that light. Revolutionary action does not necessarily have to aim to topple governments. Attempts to create autonomous communities in the face of power (using Castoriadis’ definition
here: ones that constitute themselves, collectively make their own rules or principles of operation, and continually reexamine them), would, for
instance, be almost by definition revolutionary acts. And history shows us that the continual accumulation
of such acts can change (almost) everything.”
David Graeber, Fragments of an Anarchist Anthropology

Cormac McCarthy
“At one time in the world there were woods that no one owned”
Cormac McCarthy, Child of God

Cormac McCarthy
“It is personal. That's what an education does. It makes the world personal.”
Cormac McCarthy, The Sunset Limited
