Touch me. Touch me like you didn't touch me last night.

“We made this idea that we’re somehow separated from nature. Bullshit! Again, I read in New Scientist last month…they’re talking about nature, we must control nature, we must do this, how do we deal with our relationship with nature? We are fuckin’ nature! There’s nothing on this planet that is not nature. Power stations are nature. Atom bombs are nature because nature made us to make those things. Either you trust nature or you don’t trust nature, and I trust nature!

So what is nature getting at here? If we ignore this crap that we’re somehow isolated from nature, that we somehow have to tame nature…of course nature knows exactly what it’s doing. The planet is not in danger; we are. The planet will survive. The planet’s been through, like, ammonia atmospheres …and everyone and everything dead, and it gets its way back out of it. We’re in danger. Or so we think, because our hubris tells us that we are in danger, hubris tells us that we’re about to destroy the world, we’ll wreck the planet, we’ll fuck the atmosphere. No, we’ll fuck our own atmosphere. Y’know, some trilobites will come up and they’ll live in anything we create.”
