I have no doubt that the fundamental problem the planet faces is the enormous increase in the human population

I would love to see a giant squid. Very few people have seen them. And only about half a dozen people have seen one alive.

Being in touch with the natural world is crucial.

I've never actually met one in the wild, but I have seen a king cobra. They go towards people, they rear up six feet tall and they're very aggressive and they are very fast. And one bite means certain death. So if I encountered a king cobra in the wild I would be very alarmed.

The idea that the Lord had given us a present, that the world is a gift from God... well, the amount of stuff, back then, that the Lord was giving away was limited. We do not have dominion.

I don't like rats, but there's not much else I don't like. The problem with rats is they have no fear of human beings, they're loaded with foul diseases, they would run the place given half the chance, and I've had them leap out of a lavatory while I've been sitting on it.

I'm against this huge globalisation on the basis of economic advantage.
