Because I believe that humans are computers I conjectured that computers like people can have left- and right-handed versions.

I don't think we're yet evolved to the point where we're clever enough to handle a complex a situation as climate change. The inertia of humans is so huge that you can't really do anything meaningful.

One of the big questions in the climate change debate: Are humans any smarter than frogs in a pot? If you put a frog in a pot and slowly turn up the heat it won't jump out. Instead it will enjoy the nice warm bath until it is cooked to death. We humans seem to be doing pretty much the same thing.

There is no question that climate change is happening the only arguable point is what part humans are playing in it.

Probably the most visible example of unintended consequences is what happens every time humans try to change the natural ecology of a place.

It's impossible I think however much I'd become disillusioned politically or evolve into a post-political person I don't think I'd ever change my view that socialism is the best political moment humans have ever come up with.

Romance and novel paint beauty in colors more charming than nature and describe a happiness that humans never taste. How deceptive and destructive are those pictures of consummate bliss!

When we can lay down our fear and anger and choose responses other than aggression we create the conditions for bringing out the best in us humans.

Your car should drive itself. It's amazing to me that we let humans drive cars... It's a bug that cars were invented before computers.

There's great sadness and life doesn't work out like you would want on a lot of levels but there's no need to feel all alone. This happens to everybody so there's no self-pity. This is the ride that humans are on and all of it is essential for our natural part of it.

Photography alone of the arts seems perfected to serve the desire humans have for a moment - this very moment - to stay.

Just as we reject racism sexism ageism and heterosexism we reject speciesism. The species of a sentient being is no more reason to deny the protection of this basic right than race sex age or sexual orientation is a reason to deny membership in the human moral community to other humans.
