l’espai incert que va de vers a vers,
de pregunta a pregunta.

com allibera, i mai no concedeix
treves al sentiment o a l’esperança.”

“Fossey, Fossey, you cranky difficult strong-arming self-destructive misanthrope, mediocre scientist, deceiver of earnest college students, probable cause of more deaths of the gorillas than if you had never set foot in Rwanda, Fossey, you pain-in-the-ass saint, I do not believe in prayers or souls, but I will pray for your soul, I will remember you for all of my days, in gratitude for that moment by the graves when all I felt was the pure, cleansing sadness of returning home and finding nothing but ghosts.”
“Fossil bones and footsteps and ruined homes are the solid facts of history, but the surest hints, the most enduring signs, lie in those miniscule genes. For a moment we protect them with our lives, then like relay runners with a baton, we pass them on to be carried by our descendents. There is a poetry in genetics which is more difficult to discern in broken bomes, and genes are the only unbroken living thread that weaves back and forth through all those boneyards.”

“Fossil fuel is very seductive stuff. [John Maynard] Keynes once said that, as far as he could tell, the average standard of living from the beginning of human history to the middle of the eighteenth century had perhaps doubled. Not much had changed, and then we found coal and gas and oil and everything changed. We're reaping the result of that, both ecologically and socially.”
“Fossile Infrastruktur ist selbstverständlich, umweltfreundliche muss sich beweisen. Diese Paradoxie hat auch dazu geführt, dass Menschen, die über problematische Aspekte von E-Autos lesen, daraufhin gern erklären, dass Verbrenner-PKWs dann ja doch nicht SO schlecht sind, statt festzustellen, dass Autos aktuell unterm Strich einfach grundsätzlich nicht nachhaltig sind.
Hohe Ansprüche auch an ökologische Innovationen zu haben, ist gut, nur funktioniert es nicht, wenn für fossile Infrastruktur nicht dieselben gelten. Ein Windrad hält man in vielen Teilen Deutschlands mit 1000 Metern Abstandsgrenzen von Häusern fern, Kohlebagger dürfen Häuser bis heute wegbaggern.”

“Foucault is the Cagliostro of our time.”
“Foucault’s description of an eighteenth-century soldier is also an accurate portrait of the typical citizen of District 13. The District 13 citizen is 'something that can be made; out of a formless clay, an inapt body, the machine required can be constructed; posture is gradually corrected; a calculated constraint runs slowly through each part of the body, mastering it, making it pliable, ready at all times, turning silently into the automatism of habit.' If you enact this process on the scale of a whole society, you get a populace that literally embodies obedience.”
“Foucault was the one person I met in France that I could talk to. He was a mensch. You know whether you agree with him or not because you know what he is saying.”
