“Just a simple choice, right now, between fear and love. The eyes of fear want you to put bigger locks on your doors, buy guns, close yourself off. The eyes of love instead see all of us as one. Here's what we can do to change the world, right now, to a better ride. Take all that money we spend on weapons and defenses each year and instead spend it feeding and clothing and educating the poor of the world, which it would pay for many times over, not one human being excluded, and we could explore space, together, both inner and outer, forever, in peace.” WorldWantYearsHumansEyeTogetherChoicesCan DoHuman BeingsSimpleSpacePoorPayForeverDoorsRight NowWeaponsGunAnd LoveBiggerDefenseChanging The WorldClothingsLocksFeedingExcludedLosing YourselfLove And FearEyes Of Love Author:Bill Hicks
“It's coming home to roost over the next 50 years or so. It's not just climate change; it's sheer space, places to grow food for this enormous horde.

“I have a song I wrote called “Autobiography.” I came from a very intense living situation, with having a parent on drugs and not having a lot of money. So I always want to talk about the real things. But I think 90 percent of my music, I want it to be 'feel-good music'. I'm already recording tracks for my album, but when it comes time to actually say, 'this is the album,' I may be in a completely different space than I'm in right now.” ThinkingWantFeelsMayDifferentRealSongParentSpaceSituationRight NowDrugPercentTrackAlbumsIntenseFeel GoodLots Of MoneyAutobiographyReal Things Author:Nicki Minaj
“Natural gas is a bridge fuel. But it's not a bridge - it's a gangplank. It's either a bridge in space or a bridge in time. The bridge in time we don't need. We have renewable technology right now.” NeedsNaturalSpaceTechnologyRight NowBridgesFuelGasNatural Gas Author:Josh Fox

“I have little space from the suffering of elephants right now. I wake up with it and go to sleep with it. The plight of animals in shelters, of kids used for labor for the metals in our electronics and endless other things, the fate of our water supply to dye our blue jeans and water our lawns, the sad painful life of conventionally raised meat...For me, I am working to not contribute to this.

“If there are dollars to be made, you destroy the environment. The reason is elementary. The people who are going to be harmed by this are your grandchildren and they don't have any votes in the market. Their interests are worth zero. Anybody that pays attention to their grandchildren's interests is being irrational. Because what you're supposed to do is maximize your own interests, measured by wealth, right now. Nothing else matters. So destroying the environment and militarizing outer space are rational policies, but within a framework of institutional lunacy.” PeopleIfsMadeMatterReasonInterestWealthSpacePayAttentionEnvironmentPolicyRight NowVoteDollarsRationalPay AttentionZeroDestroyingIrrationalGrandchildrenFrameworkOuter SpaceLunacyDestroying The Environment Author:Noam Chomsky
