Hello babies. Welcome to Earth. It's hot in the summer and cold in the winter. It's round and wet and crowded. On the outside, babies, you've got a hundred years here. There's only one rule that I know of, babies - god damn it, you've got to be kind.' Kurt Vonnegut. Author and humanist.

Terry Pratchett, patron of @humanists.uk died #OnThisDay in 2015. As he said, ‘No one is actually dead until the ripples they cause in the world die away.’ As a campaigner, thinker, and creator of worlds, he will live long. #thelittlebookofhumanism @profaliceroberts.bsky.social

We could never have loved the Earth so well if we had had no childhood in it, if it were not the Earth where the same flowers comes up against every spring that we used to gather with our tiny fingers as we sat lisping on ourselves on the grass.

Here's a lovely quote by humanist favourite George Eliot about a love of nature, taken from her novel The Mill on the Floss. It features in #TheLittleBookofHumanism! She was born #OnThisDay 1819.
