Daniel Quinn Quotes
- We can no more
alienate ourselves from Nature than we can alienate ourselves from entropy.
We can no more live against Nature than we can live against gravity.
Daniel Quinn Quote
- Even though there
are hundreds of millions of species, it can’t be imagined that
eliminating 200 every single day is a sustainable way to live. The community
of life as a whole is what makes this planet livable, and it’s
absurd to imagine that we can reduce that community to ourselves and
a few hundred food species we like to eat.
Daniel Quinn Quote
- From our point
view, we'd like to be able to do things to the earth WITHOUT the earth
adapting to the things we do to it. We want to change conditions on
the earth--and have the earth stay the same. This is not only unrealistic,
it's childish, like expecting to be able to eat your cake and to have
it as well.
Daniel Quinn Quote
- The world is not
in any sense in danger from itself. The world is in fact not in any
danger at all. It is we who are in danger.
Daniel Quinn Quote
- In The Story of
B I put it this way: If the world is saved, it will not be by old minds
with new programs but by new minds with no programs at all.
Daniel Quinn Quote
- This complex of
ideas is what drives our behavior as a people. This is the way people
are MEANT to live, and we must go on living this way even if it kills
us (and hundreds of thousands, even millions, of other species as well).
Daniel Quinn Quote
- We live in a period
of mass extinction's, brought on by our own actions, estimated to be
a thousand times greater than in normal times.
