"For 200 years we've been conquering Nature. Now we're beating it to death." ~Tom McMillan, quoted in Francesca Lyman, The Greenhouse Trap, 1990

"Modern technology
Owes ecology
An apology."
~Alan M. Eddison

"Give a man a fish, and he can eat for a day. But teach a man how to fish, and he'll be dead of mercury poisoning inside of three years." ~Charles Haas

"The use of solar energy has not been opened up because the oil industry does not own the sun." ~Ralph Nader, quoted in Linda Botts, ed., Loose Talk, 1980

"There's so much pollution in the air now that if it weren't for our lungs there'd be no place to put it all". ~Robert Orben

"Somewhere out there in the vast nothingness of space...
Somewhere far away in space and time..
Staring upwards at the gleaming stars in the obsidian sky

We're marooned on a small island,
In an endless sea,
Confined to a tiny spit of sand,
Unable to escape

But tonight, on this small planet
On earth, we're going to rock civilization." ~Rob Swire

Middle age is when you go to bed at night and hope you feel better in the morning. Old age is when you go to bed at night and hope you wake up in the morning.

I'd say it's more like:
Middle age is when you go to bed at night and hope you feel better in the morning. Old age is when you go to bed at night and know you won't be feeling better when you wake up in the morning.

I recently discovered a forum while trying to learn more about clinical virology and one man had these interesting quotes in his signature:


"People who know little are usually great talkers, while
those who know much say little."
~ Jean Jacques Rousseau

"The whole problem with the world is that fools and fanatics
are always so certain of themselves, but wiser people so
full of doubts."
~Bertrand Russel

"Real knowledge is to know the extent of one's ignorance."
~Confucius

"Fere libenter homines id quod volunt credunt."
(Men readily believe what they want to believe.)
~Caesar, Commentarii de bello Gallico, III, 18


"If you think education is expensive, try ignorance."
~Derek Bok

"The fact that an opinion has been widely held is no evidence whatsoever that it is
not utterly absurd."
~Bertrand Arthur William Russell, 1872-1970

"It is appallingly obvious that our technology exceeds our humanity."
~Albert Einstein


And one of my personal favorites that I forgot to post before:


“First they ignore you, then they laugh at you, then they fight you, then you win.”
~Gandhi

You can know the name of a bird in all the languages
of the world, but when you're finished, you'll know
absolutely nothing whatever about the bird... So let's
look at the bird and see what it's doing --
that's what counts. I learned very early the difference
between knowing the name of something and knowing
something. -- Richard Phillips Feynman
