I don’t blame my ancestors, they were simple farmers who just took care of their own business. It’s the smart and intelligent, the politicians, policy makers and greedy investors who should have known better when directing the world into this industrial revolution that is destroying Mother Earth.

SOCRATES: What a strange thing that which men call pleasure seems to be, and how astonishing the relation it has with what is thought to be its opposite, namely pain! A man cannot have both at the same time. Yet if he persues and catches the one, he is almost always bound to catch the other also, like two creatures with one head. I think that if Aesop had noted this he would have composed a fable that a god wished to reconcile their opposition but could not do so, so he joined their two heads together, and therefore when a man has the one, the other follows later.
