“...the cold got into your bones, and no matter how many logs you threw on the fire, you never felt truly warm.”
― Deep Country: Five Years in the Welsh Hills
― Deep Country: Five Years in the Welsh Hills
“You, over there.
You, who’s always looking
over his neighbour’s fence.
The beauty of this world is wasted on you.
I say, the beauty of this world
is wasted on you.
You use your eyes to cast disapproving looks.
You use your tongue to degrade and denigrate.
And worst of all, you use your dirty hands
to reach into pockets,
thinking happiness is found
in coins.
But happiness is the bird
that will never fly near you,
because it knows your desire to cage it—
like you do with everything else.
You cage love so two men can’t share it.
You cage hope because you can’t stand faith.
And you cage God so people think darkness
is all there is.
But the only thing you’ve successfully caged
is your petty mind.
I need you to know one thing:
There will never be a cage to confine
our light!
We, here, we are free.
Free to dream.
Free to love.
And free to be
who we want to be.”
― God, Does Humanity Exist?

“Think about this: plants see you.
In fact, plants monitor their visible environment all the time. Plants see if you come near them; they know when you stand over them. They even know if you've painted your house or if you've moved their pots from one side of the room to the other.”
