Barbara Kingsolver
“Tig would have fit on that plane just fine. Tig, Art, Takis, these anomalous, scrappy survivors, might be the lucky ones. They ate less and took up less space: the humans of the future.”
Barbara Kingsolver, Unsheltered

Conor Knighton
“In letter after letter, misfortunes great and small are blamed on the wood. "I don't know how much I buy that," Matt [Smith] said.."If you're the kinda person who would take something from a national park, maybe you just have poor judgement skills.”
Conor Knighton, Leave Only Footprints: My Acadia-to-Zion Journey Through Every National Park

Nigel Poor
“If I could be any animal, I would be a wish dragon that would only appear when a kid needed it. Based on my experience with imaginary friends, they're needed. But dragons eat meat, and I couldn't do that. So I'd have to be a vegetarian dragon; a thin dragon, because I'd spend a lot of time looking for food. That's a ton of carrots, apples, oranges...Unless I was a tiny, baby dragon. Then I'd just need, like, a little slice of cheese.”
Nigel Poor, This Is Ear Hustle: Unflinching Stories of Everyday Prison Life

“Water problems in the western United States, when viewed from afar, can seem tantalizingly easy to solve: all we need to do is turn off the fountains at the Bellagio, stop selling hay to China, ban golf, cut down the almond trees, and kill all the lawyers.”
David Owen, Where the Water Goes: Life and Death Along the Colorado River
