John Green
“I know the world will survive us—and in some ways it will be more alive. More birdsong. More creatures roaming around. More plants cracking through our pavement, rewilding the planet we terraformed. I imagine coyotes sleeping in the ruins of the homes we built. I imagine our plastic still washing up on beaches hundreds of years after the last of us is gone. I imagine moths, having no artificial lights toward which to fly, turning back to the moon.”
John Green, The Anthropocene Reviewed: Essays on a Human-Centered Planet

“When you learn another tongue, you learn the way another people see the world, the universe.”
Samuel R. Delany, Babel-17

James S.A. Corey
“You take care of your tools, your tools take care of you.”
James S.A. Corey, Tiamat's Wrath

“You can program a computer to make mistakes, and you do it not by crossing wires, but by manipulating the 'language' you teach it to 'think' in.”
Samuel R. Delany, Babel-17

James S.A. Corey
“Distributed responsibility is the problem. One person gives the order, another carries it out. One can say they didn’t pull the trigger, the other that they were just doing what they were told, and everyone lets themselves off the hook.”
James S.A. Corey, Tiamat's Wrath
