Welcome...to Jurassic Park!

Whenever you hear the consensus of scientists agrees on something or other, reach for your wallet, because you're being had.

The extreme positions of the Crossfire Syndrome require extreme simplification - framing the debate in terms which ignore the real issues.

Let's be clear. The planet is not in jeopardy. We are in jeopardy. We haven't got the power to destroy the planet - or to save it. But we might have the power to save ourselves.

Books aren't written - they're rewritten. Including your own. It is one of the hardest things to accept, especially after the seventh rewrite hasn't quite done it.

You think you can destroy the planet? What intoxicating vanity. . . . . We've been residents here for the blink of an eye. If we're gone tomorrow, the earth will not miss us.

Life is wonderful. It's a gift to be alive, to see the sun and breathe the air. And there isn't really anything else.

It's better to die laughing than to live each moment in fear.

Do you know what we call opinion in the absence of evidence? We call it prejudice.

Social control is best managed through fear.

Because the history of evolution is that life escapes all barriers. Life breaks free. Life expands to new territories. Painfully, perhaps even dangerously. But life finds a way.

Not that length and weight alone indicate excellence

Be kind to all the people you meet on your journey.

We live in a thought-suggestive Universe. The sky’s the limit. Believe and you’ll receive.

What we call love is in its essence reverence for life.

If I can't change the people around me, I change the people around me.

I have always regarded historical fiction and fantasy as sisters under the skin, two genres separated at birth.

I tell you naught for your comfort, Yea, naught for your desire, Save that the sky grows darker yet And the sea rises higher.

If our work is stimulating and rewarding, if it pushes us to grow...we become more valuable human beings.

I think that the best thing that a person can be is sincere.

I was taught when there's somethin' you can change around keep quiet, you got nothin' to complain about.
