…how could I forget my own heart?
“There is a language older by far and deeper than words. It is the language of bodies, of body on body, wind on snow, rain on trees, wave on stone. It is the language of dream, gesture, symbol, memory. We have forgotten this language. We do not even remember that it exists.”

The same Derrick Jensen who went on to found Deep Green Resistance, no less… A great pity to think that someone capable of such depths of sensitivity, and who once called for all marginalised groups to stand together, would later decide trans people are not welcome. 😦
