Edward O. Wilson
“ALMOST ALL MY LIFE I HAVE DREAMED OF THE TROPICS. MY fantasies drifted far beyond the benign temperate zone of Thoreau and Muir.”
Edward O. Wilson, Naturalist

Edward O. Wilson
“I am now convinced that it is better to work from science into literature than to try the reverse, though many have done so with distinction. To understand the scientific culture deeply and, even more, to express the emotions that attend scientific exploration require that the writer inhabit science for a substantial part of his life, intent upon making important discoveries and placing them within the canon.”
Edward O. Wilson, Naturalist

Edward O. Wilson
“What happened, what we think happened, in distant memory, is built around a small collection of dominating images. In one of my own from the age of seven, I stand in the shallows off Paradise Beach, staring down at a huge jellyfish in water so still and clear that its every detail is revealed as though it were trapped in glass. The creature is astonishing. It existed outside my previous imagination.”
Edward O. Wilson, Naturalist

Carl von Ossietzky
“If you want to fight effectively against the corrupt spirit of a nation you must share its fate.”
Carl von Ossietzky

“If the message you're hearing takes into account who you are as an individual, and it rings true, chances are it isn't the Noise.”
Roadtrip Nation, Roadmap: The Get-It-Together Guide for Figuring Out What to Do with Your Life
