Provide a reflection.

“How do we show how much we care about crayfish anxiety?… How do we celebrate the ape-like intelligence of octopi?… How do we celebrate the ancient partnership between moray eels and groupers?… A pattern is emerging and it says a lot more about us than it says about them.”

“Humans can feel grief. We also cause an awful lot of it.”

Using milk to represent smoke. “When human beings use one thing to represent another, we call that art.”

“The things that make us human are not the things that we think makes us human… We are the most compassionate, most violent, most creative, and most destructive animal that has ever been on this planet. Love is not the thing that makes us human.”

“This is not the relationship that we are supposed to have with the rest of the world. We, who have named ourselves after our brains, never think about the consequences…. Their flood is us.”
