Rick Bass
“It is a kind of church, back in these last cores. It may not be your church -- this last one percent of the West – but it is mine, and I am asking unashamedly to be allowed to continue worshipping the miracle of the planet, and the worship of a natural system not yet touched, never touched by the machines of man. A place with the residue of God – the scent, feel, sight, taste, and sound of God – forever fresh upon it”
Rick Bass, The Book Of Yaak: A Passionate Defense of Love, Wilderness, and Montana's Threatened Wild Places

Aldous Huxley
“We cannot reason ourselves out of our basic irrationality. All we can do is learn the art of being irrational in a reasonable way.”
Aldous Huxley, Island
