Crosses Quotes
-
A true noun, an isolated thing, does not exit in nature. Things are only the terminal points, or rather the meeting points of actions, cross sections cut through actions, snapshots.

On which the Prince of Glory died,
My richest gain I count but loss,

Not just mammoth, but all kinds of fossils from the past. What occurred to me was, had anyone tried to pinpoint the first case of human-induced extinction?

And I really wanted to know, when did we first cross that barrier?
