Edward Abbey
  • There is science, logic, reason there is thought verified by experience. And then there is California.

  • Belief in the supernatural reflects a failure of the imagination.

  • A patriot must always be ready to defend his country against his government.

  • Say what you like about my bloody murderous government,' I says, 'but don't insult me poor bleedin' country.

  • The tragedy of modern war is that the young men die fighting each other - instead of their real enemies back home in the capitals.
