• You find yourself by losing yourself. By not thinking about yourself all of the time. When I am in a slump with my writing, I'll go and walk for a week. Walk and not see a human being. Something happens after four or five days which is quite wonderful. It is an ancient thing. Your sense of smell. Your hearing. They come back.

• Merece la pena entregarse a la idea de seguir tu pasión. Tu pasión es tu fuente de energía. Para vivir una vida plena, hay que seguirla... desafiando quizá todo lo convencional. Y, por supuesto, tiene su precio. Tienes que saberlo desde el principio. Pero el precio que pagas, en mi opinión, no merece la pena ni pensarlo. Es muy importante no arrodillarse ante el mundo. Nunca debes inclinarte ante nada que no sean aquellos a los que amas y respetas. Nunca por nada.

• The whole concept of 'wild' was decidedly European, one not shared by the original inhabitants of this continent. What we called 'wilderness' was to the Indian a homeland, 'abiding loveliness' in Salish or Piegan. The land was not something to be feared or conquered, and 'wildlife' were neither wild nor alien; they were relatives.

• Dan Brister's book bears witness to the last fifteen years of this bureaucratic madness to tame the last vestige of wild America and domesticate the earth. Leading the resistance is the Buffalo Field Campaign, a brave, dedicated group of activists. This hardy tribe lives out in the cold winters of Yellowstone, risking their freedom and lives to stand by their brown brethren in the hair coats.

• Once again...Rick Bass draws us into his magical human worlds, rendered urgently by a hypnotic prose that tracks a parallel and untamed natural world, often with a trace of loss and always patrolled by unmistakable decency. He is a master of this form.
