“Was not their mistake once more bred of the life of slavery that they had been living?—a life which was always looking upon everything, except mankind, animate and inanimate—‘nature,’ as people used to call it—as one thing, and mankind as another, it was natural to people thinking in this way, that they should try to make ‘nature’ their slave, since they thought ‘nature’ was something outside them” — William Morris

Hyperobjects Liveblog 9

8300 words. The impulse to look at my notes or copy and paste is beginning to tug at me. Neither are overwhelming yet. Once I give in it will be a case of looking at my notes. Then, and only if I'm sure I won't actually copy and paste, I will look at my hyperobjects talks and some other unpublished stuff.

The book will be so much better if I can through compose it without much reference to what I've done by way of preparation.
