Rees:
- "All of which raises the question: What compels people so adamantly to defend the goal of unlimited income growth when the getting of it arguably deprives other people of the right to live, demonstrably threatens the ecological integrity of the planet, and apparently sacrifices much that they themselves value in life?" 32
- "If humanity is to seize control of its destiny it must arise aboce wishful thinking and tribal instinct... Human security depends on equitable development--not growth--within the means of nature." 15
- "Most disciplines test their models against the real world and then adapt the models the better reflect reality. By contrast, the economists' myth is so entrenched that its devotees presume to force reality to conform to their models... So instead of adjusting theory to reality, reality...

potential quotes:
- Here's the truth about telling stories with your life. It's going to sound like a great idea, and you are going to get excited about it, and then when it comes time to do the work, you're not going to want to do it. People love to have lived a great story, but few people like the work it takes to make it happen. But joy costs pain... don't let your story get stolen by the easy life. donald miller
- And once you know what it takes to live a better story, you dont have a choice. Not living a better story would be like deciding to die, deciding to walk around numb until you die, and its not natural to want to die. donald miller

- "Im drawn to open country. It's where everything becomes clear, where the world makes the most sense. When I put myself out there, I always return with something new. A friend once told me: The best journeys answer questions that in the beginning, you didn't even think to ask."
- "Fear of the uknown is the greatest fear of all, but we just went for it"
- "The word adventure has gotten overused, to me, adventure is when everything goes wrong. That's when the adventure starts."
- "How can people who are trapped in the city try to create a more ecologically minded world if you don't know that it's possible. A good example of how people become closed off from their ecosystems is with their walkmen or iPods. So you start to further close yourself off. You don't want to breathe the dirty air, you don't wan...
