“This is beautiful, good and virtuous. It is most prolific and healthy without us. So the best human course is to absent ourselves from it, to do what the original Thetfordians did, but on a grand scale. Evacuate the planet." "Uh." "Think of it for a minute. I'm not talking mass suicide. I'm talking about balancing our material needs with our aesthetic or, if you want to call it that, our spiritual needs. We'd be seriously bummed if all the wilderness disappeared. We care about Earth and the things that live here because we co-evolved with them, so our brains are the products of millions of years' worth of selection for being awed and satisfied by this kind of place. At the same time, we're consultive top predators with the propensity to engage in self-evolution. We've hacked Lysenkoism into Darwin.”

“I will be very careful the next time I fall in love, she told herself. Also, she had made a promise to herself that she intended on keeping. She was never going to go out with another writer: no matter how charming, sensitive, inventive or fun they could be. They weren't worth it in the long run. They were emotionally too expensive and the upkeep was complicated. They were like having a vacuum cleaner around the house that broke all the time and only Einstein could fix it. She wanted her next lover to be a broom.”

“With Permacapital Economics, there is no need to limit growth or acknowledge so called planetary boundaries because of the "Produce No Waste" key constraint. By designing an economic system whereby waste does not exist, everything produced is profitably consumed - even bi-products, and therefore growth and productivity in our human civilization becomes a net value-adder to the planet and its ecosystems. We become, through our growth, benefactors of planetary wellbeing as opposed to deterrents of it. Just as a tree, and its growth, becomes a net value-adder to the forest. This is what Permacapital Economics is all about.”
