Book cover for The Ministry for the Future
Evolution itself will of course eventually refill all these emptied ecological niches with new species. The pre-existing plenitude of speciation will be restored in less than twenty million years.

Kim Stanley Robinson
“Over the years we saw what worked and refined our methods. Violence didn’t work. Numbers did. That’s the secret, in case you are looking for the secret to resisting an imperial power, which was what we were doing through those years. Non-violent resistance of the total population, or as much of it as you can get. That’s what works.”
Kim Stanley Robinson, The Ministry for the Future

Kim Stanley Robinson
“And there are things about the Swiss you have to admire. They are so punktlich, so punctual— this is funny at first, but what is it but a regard for the other person? You are saying to the other person, your time is as valuable as mine, so I will not waste yours by being late. Let us agree we are all equally important and so everyone has to be on time, in order to respect each other.”
Kim Stanley Robinson, The Ministry for the Future

“As William Shakespeare said in Henry IV, “we owe God a death and let it go which way it will he that dies this year is quit for the next.”
James Lee Burke, Every Cloak Rolled in Blood

Hugh Howey
“All that remained was a poem and the call to be remembered, a mark to prove he’d been there. I am Solo. And a haze of chalk fell through the air like the ghost of unwritten words.”
Hugh Howey, Shift

Kim Stanley Robinson
“The Swiss had always slanted against the grain, always pushed against the received wisdom that tended to wash over the rest of Europe in waves of intellectual fashion, everything from details of fashion to participation in world wars.”
Kim Stanley Robinson, The Ministry for the Future
