"Boston is the rebel when it comes to major cities. We close early. Real early. We congregate all of our schools in a 4 block area around the commons. We say "fuck all" when it comes to grid-system traffic layouts and build roads based on the scribblings of an austistic kid trying to do a color-by-number. We suck a little bit but in that wholesome and nurturing kind of way. If you don't like that, I dunno what else to tell ya." --

"Mankind is no more than a parasitic tick gorging himself on temporary plenty while the seas are low and the climate comparatively clement. But the present arrangement of land and sea will change, and with it our brief supremacy." --- Richard Fortey
