We like to think that the fate of the Earth and the fate of human worlds are the same thing, but we're not as important as that.

Paul Kingsnorth

Pubs would be number one. And black cabs and cabbies - moody cabbies always crack me up. And the other thing I love is the parks: the parks around London don't get enough airtime - I think they're sensational, and when spring hits, the first thing I'll do is go to the park.

Poppy Delevingne

Fate is a misplaced retreat. Many people rationalize an unexplained event as fate and shrug their shoulders when it occurs. But that is not what fate is. The world operates as a series of circles that are invisible, for they extend to the upper air. Fate is where these circles cut to earth. Since we cannot see them, do not know their content, and have no sense of their width, it is impossible to predict when these cuts will slice into our reality. When this happens, we call it fate. Fate is not a chance event but one that is inevitable, we are simply blind to its nature and time.

James Levine

You see, I'm a believer in the rhapsodic. I like things that are happy. For no particular reason, I just like them. Most people don't seem to be like that in this particular place, in this world. You can tell by what they focus on. Read a newspaper, watch a TV show, go to a movie, look at a life.

Frederick Lenz

Discussing vaccination with a doctor is like discussing vegetarianism with a butcher.

George Bernard Shaw

Crowns have their compass-length of days their date- Triumphs their tomb-felicity, her fate- Of nought but earth can earth make us partaker, But knowledge makes a king most like his Maker.

William Shakespeare

In life there are meetings which seem Like a fate.

Robert Bulwer-Lytton, 1st Earl of Lytton

It is a grief over the fate of the Earth that contains within it a joyful hope, that we might reclaim this Earth.

Susan Griffin

The Earth is the Lord. Everybody walks on the earth. And nobody respects the Earth. Everybody who walks on the earth, shits on the Earth. Spits on the Earth. Don't respect the Earth. So the Earth didn't like it. So the Earth call for a revolution. And the earth is fighting back. The Earth call for a revolution. The Earth call for justice. And the Earth get justice. 'Cause the Earth release ganja. The Earth release herbs.

Lee “Scratch” Perry

No people are uninteresting. Their fate is like the chronicles of planets. Nothing in them is not particular, and planet is dissimilar from planet.

Yevgeny Yevtushenko

I'd like to get away from earth awhile And then come back to it and begin over. May no fate wilfully misunderstand me And half grant what I wish and snatch me away Not to return. Earth's the right place for love: I don't know where it's likely to go better.

Robert Frost

In discussing Barbarism and Christianity I have actually been discussing the Fall of Rome.

Edward Gibbon

I believe in discussing very thoroughly what should be the goal. When discussing it, I allow others to give their views.

Arundhati Bhattacharya

You seem to have quite a taste for discussing these horrible subjects," she said, rather scornfully; "you ought to have been a detective police officer.

Mary Elizabeth Braddon

We who are gathered here may represent a particular delete, not of money and power, but of concern for the earth for the earth's sake.

Ansel Adams

Once a term like "open source" entered our vocabulary, one could recast the whole public policy calculus in very different terms, so that instead of discussing the public interest, we are discussing the interests of individual software developers, while claiming that this is a discussion about "innovation" and "progress," not "accountability" or "security."

Evgeny Morozov
