Ed Yong
“Sensing can feel passive, as if eyes and other sense organs were just intake valves through which animals absorb and receive the stimuli around them. But over time, the simple act of seeing recolors the world. Guided by evolution, eyes are living paintbrushes. Flowers, frogs, fish, feathers and fruit all show that sight affects what is seen and that much of what we find beautiful in nature has been shaped by the vision of our fellow animals. Beauty is not only in the eye of the beholder, it arises because of that eye.”
Ed Yong, An Immense World By Ed Yong, The Green New Deal [Hardcover] By Jeremy Rifkin 2 Books Collection Set

“In essence there are no characters in my story. There is love. And it acted-through persons.”
Marina Tsvetaeva, The Story of Sonechka

Helen Macdonald
“I think of all the complicated histories that landscapes have, and how easy it is to wipe them away, put easier, safer histories in their place.”
