Derrick Jensen: Self

Quotes 

• Derrick Jensen : [from trailer]  You may not see any smoke come out of smoke stacks. But that doesn't mean it is not happening.

• Derrick Jensen : I love the one by John Livingstone, "There is no surplus in Nature." Every tree that's taken out was a home for someone else, was food for someone else.

• Derrick Jensen : We in this culture have come to conflate life in this culture with all life on Earth. When I say, "I want to end civilization," they go, "Oh, you want t o end life." But the problem is that this culture is ending life. And some people accuse me of being cruel because I want to bring down civilization and that will make it so that people who are reliant on modern medicines will die. I have Crohn's disease and coronary disease and without modern medicines I will die. I am one of these people. But I realize that the world is more important than I am.
