Patti Smith
“No one expected me. Everything awaited me.”
Patti Smith, Just Kids

“Imagine having the power to become resilient to all that is hostile to us.”
Sabrina Imbler, How Far the Light Reaches: A Life in Ten Sea Creatures

“Though the yeti crab’s environment seems inhospitable to us, it is nothing to be pitied. The pressure does not crush the crab, and the darkness does not oppress it. It is exactly suited to the life it leads, however strange or repulsive we might find it. What use is the sun to an eyeless crab? It already has everything it needs.”
Sabrina Imbler, How Far the Light Reaches: A Life in Ten Sea Creatures

“Feral goldfish are so good at living they have become an ecological menace. Of course, it’s not their fault; goldfish would never have gotten into the river if we hadn’t thought of them as disposable.”
Sabrina Imbler, How Far the Light Reaches: A Life in Ten Sea Creatures

“But when I think about ponds infested with gallon-big goldfish, I feel a kind of triumph. I see something that no one expected to live not just alive but impossibly flourishing, and no longer alone. I see a creature whose present existence must have come as a surprise even to itself.”
Sabrina Imbler, How Far the Light Reaches: A Life in Ten Sea Creatures
