Neil Shubin
“Our body dries out with every passing year; newborns are about 75 percent water, not much different from an average potato.”
Neil Shubin, The Universe Within: Discovering the Common History of Rocks, Planets, and People

Neil Shubin
“North America and Europe are getting farther apart by 1.5 centimeters per year. Australia is heading for Hawaii at about 7 centimeters per year. The plates on our planet move about as fast as hair grows on our scalps.”
Neil Shubin, The Universe Within: Discovering the Common History of Rocks, Planets, and People

Brené Brown
“When the culture of any organization mandates that it is more important to protect the reputation of a system and those in power than it is to protect the basic human dignity of the individuals who serve that system or who are served by that system, you can be certain that the shame is systemic, the money is driving ethics, and the accountability is all but dead.”
Brené Brown, Braving the Wilderness: The Quest for True Belonging and the Courage to Stand Alone

Anne Lamott
“A writer paradoxically seeks the truth and tells lies every step of the way. It's a lie if you make something up. But you make it up in the name of the truth, and then you give your heart to expressing it clearly.”
Anne Lamott, Bird by Bird

Neil Shubin
“Like a sixty-year-old person on actuarial charts, the habitable Earth is three-quarters of the way through its calculated life expectancy. Earth is about 4.57 billion years old, and the laws of stellar physics tell of another billion years before the sun expands to the point that it bakes the possibility for life off the planet.”
Neil Shubin, The Universe Within: Discovering the Common History of Rocks, Planets, and People
