“Make no mistake, your relationships are the heaviest components in your life. All those negotiations and arguments and secrets, the compromises. The slower we move the faster we die. Make no mistake, moving is living. Some animals were meant to carry each other. To live symbiotically over a lifetime. Star crossed lovers, monogamous swans. We are not swans. We are sharks.” MovingDiesStarsAnimalSecretMistakeLoversArgumentLifetimeCompromiseFasterOur RelationshipNegotiationComponentsSharksSwansStar Crossed Lovers Author:Ryan Bingham
“I think that the environmental movement is wisely moving away from a largely emotion-based argument for the spiritual or intrinsic value of Nature with a capital "N" and evolving toward a very hard-nosed case for the economic value of natural capital, ecosystem services, biodiversity, etc.” ThinkingHardSpiritualMovingValuesNaturalEmotionCasesEconomicMovementArgumentEnvironmentalEvolveEtcEcosystemsBiodiversityMoving AwayIntrinsic ValueEconomic Value Author:Edward Norton
“The nobility of Teresa Leo's poems is that they are not disposed to hide from the dark-rather, they display a mind that tends toward obsession and brooding, that works against fatality like fingers at a knot. The firm, attentive mind on display and the lucid unfolding of the poems are the life instinct seeking and finding its way through again and again. Love and beauty are the argument, but they don't win easily. Bloom in Reverse works through elegy toward survival with moving persistence, both driven and compelling.” WayMindMovingWinningDarkFindingsSurvivalArgumentInstinctFingersSeekingDrivenObsessionPersistenceFirmDisplayCompellingAgain And AgainReverseNobilityUnfoldingKnotsBroodingTeresaFatalityElegy Author:Tony Hoagland
“The words 'bad timing' came to be ghosts haunting our every move in Birmingham.

“It has often been argued that absolute scepticism is self-contradictory; but this is a mistake: and even if it were not so, it would be no argument against the absolute sceptic, inasmuch as he does not admit that no contradictory propositions are true. Indeed, it would be impossible to move such a man, for his scepticism consists in considering every argument and never deciding upon its validity; he would, therefore, act in this way in reference to the arguments brought against him.” IfsMenWayDoeSelfWould BeMovingMistakeImpossibleArgumentAbsolutesSkepticismConsideringPropositionsContradictoryValidityScepticismSceptic Book:The Essential Peirce, Volume 1: Selected Philosophical Writings?
