«What this means is that corporations and those who run them cannot stop exploiting resources and amassing wealth until they have... .I cannot finish this sentence, because the truth is that can never stop; like cancer, they can only continue to expand until they kill the host.»
«Writing is really very easy. Tap a vein and bleed onto the page. Everything else is just technical.»
