“There is no being on the other side of the world, much less nature or weather. If anything, the apparent prevalence of natural disasters and global pandemics indicates that we are not on the side of the world, but that the world is against us. But even this is too anthopocentric a view, as if the world harboured some misanthropic vendetta against humanity. It would be more accurate - and more horrific, in a sense - to say that the world is indifferent to us as human beings.”
“At the planetary level of the Earth’s deep time, nothing could be more insignificant that the human.”
