  1. Martin Tobias Lithner:

    No species can withstand all the infinite factors to which it can be exposed. Homo sapiens is closer to mass death than other species of the same geographical distribution, largely because we hunt it ourselves.

  2. Rosy Cole:

    “Aberjhani's writing blows the mind and frees the psyche of any rigid assumptions about ancestral heritage. Here, our collective experience is starkly rendered. The transparency of one culture overlays another, and another, to form the daguerreotype of possibilities that is homo sapiens, interacting, almost like the elements themselves, with the created world and modified only by context and its imperatives.”-- from Circles and Arcs

  3. Greta Thunberg:

    We have to acknowledge that the older generations have failed. All political movements in their present form have failed, but homo sapiens have not yet failed. Yes, we are failing, but there is still time to turn everything around. We can still fix this.

  4. Jeff Goldblum:

    What else can we do? being a Sandy Meisner devotee, I’m a romantic about the ensemble credo and synergy and, like this movie depicts, what educated, smart and deeply caring people can do – even a few of them – together at a crucial moment. They can even sometimes defeat the forces of ignorance, corruption and greed, and keep the Homo sapiens ball moving along a little more. Maybe.

  5. Mathew Stewart:

    It is only after the last interglacial [ period ] with the return of cooler conditions that we have definitive evidence for Neanderthals moving into the region, the footprints, therefore, most likely represent humans, or Homo sapiens.
