Fyodor Dostoevsky
“With me, you know it's like this: when I sober up, I get wise and stupid, and when I'm drunk, I get stupid and wise.”
Fyodor Dostoyevsky, The Brothers Karamazov

“It is only the old who look older in tragedy.”
Heidi Sopinka, The Dictionary of Animal Languages

John Steinbeck
“Just think what this land would raise with plenty of water! Why, it will be a frigging garden!”
John Steinbeck, East of Eden

Bill McKibben
“If you want honey you need a hive of bees. But if you were trying to decide if making honey was a good idea, bees would be the last creatures to ask.”
Bill McKibben, Oil and Honey: The Education of an Unlikely Activist

“Our very human to simplify and seek one answer may explain our ongoing difficulty in recognizing impending synergy and acting before systems collapse. We are prone to accept death by a thousand little cuts, in which one degraded aspect of our environment or health becomes familiar and accepted as normal--and then another.”
Mark L. Winston, Bee Time: Lessons from the Hive
