Quote by J.J. Wisdom

“In 1994, 84% of the world’s energy came from fossil fuels. Today, it remains at 84%, but the world is now using three times as much energy as it did in 1994. Today—despite all of our green energy initiatives—global oil and coal production are at all-time highs at a time when they should be at all-time lows.”

“There is an obvious contradiction here. If one agency [U.S. Customs and Border Protection] of the U.S. government believes that Mexican nationals crossing over the border to sell plasma amounts to day labor, why then are millions of others who sell their plasma within the Unites States considered donors, not workers? The industry has more than tripled in its physical presence since 2005, all while insisting the payments for plasma are token of appreciation for people's time, not their labor. The federal government has not intervene in this arrangement anywhere but at the Mexico border.”

“The tinkle of wind chimes announcing the return of our fairy guests made us both look up. Our chance to be alone was going to be shorter than either of us had hoped. I sighed and brushed an errant dragon scale from Eadric’s tunic. “Someday when we have lots of time, remind me to tell you what you mean to me.” Eadric tilted my head back so he could gaze into my eyes. “I can tell you what you mean to me with just one word.” Let me guess,” I said, smiling up at him. “Maybe I make you happy because you no longer have to enter kissing contests to find the best kisser? Do I bring excitement into your life because I can wisk you away to exotic lands on my magic carpet? Or do you find me delightful because I can conjure food whenever you’re hungry?” No, that’s not. . . Wait, what was that last one?” I laughed and shook my head. “Never mind. So tell me in one word, what do I mean to you?” That’s easy,” said Eadric. “Everything!”

“I have learned, that in this life, you must always be your own advocate. We yearn for someone to always be on our side, to always trust us, to always believe us and believe in us, regardless of the world and everything in it! But the reality of life proves that the majority of people are only capable of a shallow love. They will only advocate you as much as you advocate yourself. They are admirers who have fallen into adoration of your own publication of yourself and once that image begins to shake and quiver? Their "love" shakes and quivers, too. Very seldom will you find someone who will love the way that you tremble. And yet, this is the only type of love that is ever even true! If you are not loved for the way that you tremble and the way that you come unhinged, then you are not even loved at all.”
