Ben Ehrenreich
“We have no choice but to scramble to retrace our steps and to try, in a hurry now, to imagine things differently: other worlds, other ways of thinking, living, seeing. Other ways of writing, and of reading.”
Ben Ehrenreich, Desert Notebooks: A Road Map for the End of Time

“I often tell students that we should aspire to be amanuenses to the land: to let the land speak (in all its voices, human and otherwise), then take dictation, and try to get some of the words right.

“How do you know when you get the words right?” they ask.

“You know,” I reply. When we do, the leaves not only speak; they positively sing.”
Robert Michael Pyle, Nature Matrix: New and Selected Essays

“In planting trees, aim to perpetuate an ecosystem, not a plantation.”
Daniel Mathews, Trees in Trouble: Wildfires, Infestations, and Climate Change

Joe Meno
“If a member of the military can be killed and left in the road, in front of his own house, then who will be safe in this country?”
Joe Meno, Between Everything and Nothing

“For every species of book person, the idea of Shakespeare’s library—his personal collection of manuscripts, books, letters and other papers—is enticing, totemic, a subject of wonder. How did he write? Who inspired him? Who appalled him? To know Shakespeare’s books is to know Shakespeare the author.”
Stuart Kells, Shakespeare's Library: Unlocking the Greatest Mystery in Literature
