    O yonge fresshe folkes, he or she,
    In which that love up-groweth with your age,

    To thilke God that after his image
    Yow made, and thynketh al nis but a faire
    This world, that passeth sone as floures faire.
    Geoffrey Chaucer (1340–1400)

    Everywhere—all over Africa and South America ... you see these suburbs springing up. They represent the optimum of what people want. There’s a certain sort of logic leading towards these immaculate suburbs. And they’re terrifying, because they are the death of the soul.... This is the prison this planet is being turned into.
    —J.G. (James Graham)
