“I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.”

“The thing the ecologically illiterate don't realise about an ecosystem is that it's a system. A system!

The untrained might miss that collapse until it was too late. That's why the highest function of ecology is the understanding of consequences.”
