Every system of injustice depends on the silence, paralysis, confusion, and cooperation of those it seeks to eliminate or control.

Agustina Bazterrica
“After all, since the world began, we’ve been eating each other. If not symbolically, then we’ve been literally gorging on each other. The Transition has enabled us to be less hypocritical.”
Agustina Bazterrica, Tender Is the Flesh

John Green
“Never predict the end of the world. You’re almost certain to be wrong, and if you’re right, no one will be around to congratulate you.”
John Green, The Anthropocene Reviewed: Essays on a Human-Centered Planet

Agustina Bazterrica
“The human being is complex and I find the vile acts, contradictions, and sublimities characteristic of our condition astonishing. Our existence would be an exasperating shade of gray if we were all flawless.”
Agustina Bazterrica, Tender Is the Flesh

John Green
“I think two of the fundamental facts of being a person are 1. We must go on, and 2. None of us ever walks alone. We may feel alone (in fact, we will feel alone), but even in the crushing grind of isolation, we aren't alone.”
John Green, The Anthropocene Reviewed: Essays on a Human-Centered Planet

John Green
“To fall in love with the world isn’t to ignore or overlook suffering, both human or otherwise. For me anyway, to fall in love with the world is to look up at the night sky and feel your mind swim before the beauty and the distance of the stars. It is to hold your children while they cry and watch the sycamore trees leaf out in June. When my breastbone starts to hurt, and my throat tightens and tears well in my eyes, I want to look away from feeling. I want to deflect with irony or anything else that will keep me from feeling directly. We all know how loving ends. But I want to fall in love with the world anyway, to let it crack me open. I want to feel what there is to feel while I am here.”
John Green, The Anthropocene Reviewed: Essays on a Human-Centered Planet
