Deutsche Übersetzung

Während des größten Teils der Geschichte unserer Spezies waren wir hilflos zu verstehen, wie die Natur funktioniert. Wir haben jeden Sturm, jede Dürre, jede Krankheit und jeden Kometen persönlich mitgenommen. Wir haben Mythen und Geister geschaffen, um die Muster der Natur zu erklären.

For me, surfing is as close a connection I can have with Mother Nature. To surf, you're riding a pulse of energy from Mother Nature. And it's strong. It's real. It's there. And you're dancing with that. You're connecting with that. You're might be the only person in the history of the universe that connects with that particular pulse of energy.

The people I really do dislike are the morally unimaginative kind of evolutionary reductionists who, in the name of science, think they can explain everything in terms of our early hominid ancestors or our genes, with their combination of high-handed tone and disregard for history. Such reductive speculation encourages a really empty scientism.
