“You who are on the inside, this world terrifies you because, according to you, it’s ‘without a divine master’. But don’t you see that it’s also without a human master? You who are on the outside, this call for renewal of ‘God’ horrifies you because, according to you, it would bring back the old tyranny of the divine. Don’t you see that this world is forever without a creator?”
― Bruno Latour, Rejoicing: Or the Torments of Religious Speech

“My kingdom for a more embodied body”
― Bruno Latour

“Machines are the concealed wishes of actants which have tamed forces so effectively that they no longer look like forces”
