“Schneider has made a career of telling the public that the climate is going to change drastically, and indeed every spring and fall he's been right.”

“One of the biggest obstacles to making a start on climate change is that it has become a cliche before it has even been understood”

“Every man engaged in war tells himself he can alter what has been written, that it is he, not God, who is the maker of destiny, free to change what is meant to be.”

“The liberty of the press is indeed essential to the nature of a free state: but this consists in laying no previous restraints upon publications, and not in freedom from censure for criminal matter when published. Every freeman has an undoubted right to lay what sentiments he pleases before the public: to forbid this, is to destroy the freedom of the press: but if he publishes what is improper, mischievous, or illegal, he must take the consequence of his own temerity.”

“If a person has a contribution to make, he must make it in public. If learning is not made public, it is a waste.”

“...had just apologized to me. Hell must have been experiencing some climate change.”
