“I passed a little further on and heard a lotus talk:

Is but a sliding drop of rain between His petals wide.”

—Eldridge Cleaver (b. 1935)
“Nature is a self-made machine, more perfectly automated than any automated machine. To create something in the image of nature is to create a machine, and it was by learning the inner working of nature that man became a builder of machines.”
