“It keeps going," I say. "And also, it will end." "And also?" says the rose. That's just it. What's so frightening about existing. It keeps going and also it will end. If I could define my terror of life, dying, loving, and all of it. If I could say "This is what it is", I'd say "It keeps going. It keeps going and also it will end." "And also?" says the rose.

A habitable planet with a stable climate is the infrastructure to our human-made infrastructure.”
