Outdoor Quote: Carsten Jensen

Filed in archive Outdoor Quotes on December 13, 2007

"Our world harbors an uncharted territory, no longer white spaces on the map but black spaces, erected by political terrorism, defended not by insurmountable chains of mountains and impenetrable jungle, but by dogma, blood-lust and modern weapon technology, all of which are again closing the doors our curiosity had opened. But there are other countries inaccessible only a moment ago, which are opening up once more. The Earth is born again and crying out to be discovered, but the greatest illusion of our time lies in the name it has afforded itself; the age of information."

-Carsten Jensen, I Have Seen the World Begin (1996)
