"It's obvious nonsense, but it makes nice people feel good about themselves to do their bit for the planet. It's vanity of a grotesque kind to believe that mankind, and our 'carbon footprint', has more impact on the future of Earth than Nature, which bends our planet to its will, as it sees fit."

"إنها حماقةٌ بيّنة، لكنها تُشعرُ الطيبين بالرضا عن أنفسهم حين يظنون أنهم يؤدون واجبهم تجاه الكوكب. ويا لها من غطرسةٍ بشعةٍ أن نصدق أن البشرية، و"بصمتنا الكربونية"، لها تأثيرٌ على مستقبل الأرض يفوق تأثير الطبيعة التي تُخضع كوكبنا لمشيئتها كيفما شاءت."
Charles Saatchi
"I hate to sound like a romantic adolescent, but I believe artists don't generally see art as a career choice; they simply can't overcome their desire to make art, and will live on little income for as long as they have to, before they start to sell their work - or give up and get a paying job."
"أكره أن أبدو كيافعٍ غارقٍ في الرومانسية، لكنني أؤمن بأن الفنانين لا يرون الفن عادةً كخيارٍ مهني؛ بل هم ببساطة لا يستطيعون التغلب على رغبتهم في الإبداع، وسيعيشون على القليل من الدخل ما داموا مضطرين لذلك، قبل أن يبدأوا في بيع أعمالهم – أو يستسلموا ويحصلوا على وظيفةٍ مدفوعة الأجر."
