"Whereas labour involves care and sustenance, work is the domain of creation and creativity. It calls on craft and skill and vision. It is about the dreaming of dreams and the making of things." Tim Jackson (2021). Post Growth: Life After Capitalism. Tapestry (July 2022).

"Beyond our material limits (...) lies another world. A place worth visiting. An investment worth making. A destination worth reaching. Tomorrow is another country. They do things differently there. Beyond the limits to affluence lies an affluence that only limits can reveal to us. Limits are the gateway to the limitless." Tim Jackson (2021). Post Growth: Life After Capitalism.

"Love appears as the most unlikely pinnacle in an entire universe of improbability. It's the most spectacular victory in our ongoing struggle to bring order out of chaos." Tim Jackson (2021).

"Is art resistance? Can you plant a garden to stop a war? It depends how you think about time. It depends what you think a seed does, if it’s tossed into fertile soil. But it seems to me that whatever else you do, it’s worth tending to paradise, however you define it and wherever it arises." Olivia Laing cited in Maria Popova «Gardening as Resistance: Notes on Building Paradise». Makes me want to read the book Funny Weather: Art in an Emergency (2021).
