The things we want are transformative, and we don’t know or only think we know what is on the other side of that transformation Never to get lost is not to live.

As I started to pursue the subject more deeply I realized that walking was this wonderful meandering path through everything I was already interested in - gender politics, public space and urban life, demonstrations and parades and marches. The relationship between walking and thinking and between the mind and the body.

A contrarian at heart, I am often guided by what I disagree with and don't want.

People are actually very good at being communists in the sense that they instantly abandon capitalism, that they love these relationships of mutual aid, because the astonishing thing about disasters is that people are often weirdly joyous in them, because they've recovered a sense of agency, a sense of power, etc.

Walking allows us to be in our bodies and in the world without being made busy by them.

There is no one as dangerous as he or she who has nothing to lose.

To be hopeful means to be uncertain about the future, to be tender toward possibilities, to be dedicated to change all the way down to the bottom of your heart.
