“Maybe we're just born to love and worry about the people we know, and to go on loving and worrying even when there are more important things we should be doing. And if that means the human species is going to die out, isn't it in a way a nice reason to die out, the nicest reason you can imagine? Because when we should have been reorganising the distribution of the world's resources and transitioning collectively to a sustainable economic model, we were worrying about sex and friendship instead.

And I love that about humanity, and in fact it's the very reason I root for us to survive - because we are so stupid about each other.”

“The books that the world calls immoral are books that show the world its own shame.”
