“Along with the atom, the personality of the Homo Sapiens has been splitting...”
“Technically, our name, to those who speak science, is Homo sapiens— wise person. But we have been described in many other ways. Homo narrans, juridicus, ludens, diaspora: we are storytelling, legal, game-playing, scattered people, too. True but incomplete. That old phrase has the secret. We are all, have always been, will always be, Homo vorago aperientis: person before whom opens a vast & awesome hole.”
“Two hallmarks of Homo Sapiens are decoration and self-identification.”
“Human can surprise you sometimes. An unpredictable species, Homo sapiens”
“We are all in flight from the real reality. That is the basic definition of Homo Sapiens.”
“Homo sapiens [are] a tiny twig on an improbable branch of a contingent limb on a fortunate tree.”
