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

“If Shakespeare was another Barrington—just an allonymous brand, just a gormless frontman—then there had to be a Machiavelli in the background—a cunning architect of an elaborate bibliographical hoax. How could such a thing be done? And what kind of person could pull it off?”
Stuart Kells, Shakespeare's Library: Unlocking the Greatest Mystery in Literature

Ben Ehrenreich
“How painful and absurd, this fantasy that your own
labors might in turn be redeemed by strangers centuries and perhaps continents away who would need to hear what you had to whisper, this delusion that you were doing anything other than babbling because you like the sounds it makes, like a child blowing bubbles into milk.”
Ben Ehrenreich, Desert Notebooks: A Road Map for the End of Time

“If we treat our forests right, we can at least ameliorate the declines in forest extent and diversity and the consequent impoverishment of the aesthetic, economic, climatic, and spiritual benefits we count on from them.”
Daniel Mathews, Trees in Trouble: Wildfires, Infestations, and Climate Change

“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
