of
what he thinks he is as to overlook
what he indubitably

is extermination of
other animals and his own species, which,
however,
multiplies with such insistent rapidity
as to infest the
whole habitable earth and Canada."

"Of all tyrannies a tyranny exercised
for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive.
It may be better to live under robber barons
than under omnipotent moral busybodies.
The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep,
his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those
who torment us for our own good will torment us without end
for they do so with the approval of their
own conscience."~C.S. Lewis

"Because we do not know when we will
die, we get to think of life as an inexhaustible well.
And yet everything happens only a certain
number of times; and a very small number really.
How many more times will you remember a certain
afternoon of your childhood; an afternoon that is
so deeply a part of your
being that you cant conceive of your life without it?
Perhaps 4 or 5 times more? Perhaps not even
that many.
How many more times will you watch the
full moon rise?
Perhaps 20. And yet it all seems limitless."
~Brandon Lee, his final interview

"It may be that I'll destroy the garden
and make a ruin out of it.
It may be that my progeny will teem
over the
earth like locusts, stripping it bare,
until they drown
in their own filth and hate the very
sight of one another and go
mad. Still they must go on, because
to grow
without limit is good and to accept
the limits is bad."
~Daniel Quinn, Ishmael
