Famous quotes containing the words mushroom, planet and/or series:

    “We breathe an ill wind,
    nevertheless our kind
    in mushroom multitudes
    jostles for elbow-room
    moonwards ...”
    —Denise Levertov (b. 1923)

    “Could it not be that just at the moment masculinity has brought us to the brink of nuclear destruction or ecological suicide, women are beginning to rise in response to the Mother’s call to save her planet and create instead the next stage of evolution? Can our revolution mean anything else than the reversion of social and economic control to Her representatives among Womankind, and the resumption of Her worship on the face of the Earth? Do we dare demand less?”
    —Jane Alpert (b. 1947)

    “Autobiography is only to be trusted when it reveals something disgraceful. A man who gives a good account of himself is probably lying, since any life when viewed from the inside is simply a series of defeats.”
    —George Orwell (1903–1950)
