Quote by Chanel Miller

“When society questions a victim's reluctance to report, I will be here to remind you that you ask us to sacrifice our sanity to fight outdated structures that were designed to keep us down...The real question we need to be asking is not, Why didn't she report, the question is, Why would you?”

“I recently asked more than seventy eminent researchers if they would have done I their work differently if they had thought Darwin's theory was wrong. The responses were all the same: no. I also examined the outstanding biodiscoveries of the past century: the discovery of the double helix; the characterization of the ribosome: the mapping of genomes; research on medications and drug reactions: improvements in food production and sanitation; the development of new surgeries; and others. I even queried biologists working in areas where one would expect the Darwinian paradigm to have most benefited research, such as the emergence of resistance to antibiotics and pesticides. Here, as elsewhere, I found that Darwin's theory had provided no discernible guidance, but was brought in, after the breakthroughs, as an interesting narrative gloss.”

“Magic can be a prayer said while kneading bread. It can be found in a friendship bracelet, a curse muttered under the breath, a song, a dance, or a long and complicated ritual. The one thing that characterizes magic is that its purpose is to produce a result desired by the practitioner. With such a broad definition, magic is something done by people every day.”

“არ მომწონს, როცა ცდილობენ, სიტყვებით ან აზრებით მოიპოვონ სხვების ნდობა. თუ კაცი პატიოსნად იქცევა, ნდობის წინასწარ მოპოვება არ სჭირდება, მისი საქციელის რაციონალური ანალიზიც საკმარისია. ვინც ცდილობს, სხვა ადამიანის ნდობა დაიმსახუროს, მას უპატიოსნო ზრახვები აქვს, თუნდაც ამაში საკუთარ თავსაც არ უტყდებოდეს.”
