Neal Shusterman
“It's called loitering, which is like littering with human beings as the trash.”
Neal Shusterman, The Schwa Was Here

Kate McGahan
“Our Master puts the desire to procreate in us to be sure that we are fruitful and multiply. He knows how important animals are to the planet because most animals He allows to reproduce in great number. He put every one of us on the ark for a reason. Do you think it鈥檚 a mistake that dogs and cats have litters of 8, 9, 10 or more and people typically only have one or maybe two? It鈥檚 no mistake. It鈥檚 because God intends that there is more than enough four-legged love to go around.”
Kate McGahan, Jack McAfghan: Return from Rainbow Bridge: A Dog's Afterlife Story of Loss, Love and Renewal

Stewart Stafford
“The scale of the mess we leave behind is proportionate to the level of respect we have for others.”
Stewart Stafford

H.G. Wells
“Indeed Christianity passes. Passes鈥攊t has gone! It has littered the beaches of life with churches, cathedrals, shrines and crucifixes, prejudices and intolerances, like the sea urchin and starfish and empty shells and lumps of stinging jelly upon the sands here after a tide. A tidal wave out of Egypt. And it has left a multitude of little wriggling theologians and confessors and apologists hopping and burrowing in the warm nutritious sand. But in the hearts of living men, what remains of it now? Doubtful scraps of Arianism. Phrases. Sentiments. Habits.”
H.G. Wells, Experiment in Autobiography

“the litter of Schr枚dinger's cat is all over our decision tasks”
Tali Sharot, Neuroscience of Preference and Choice: Cognitive and Neural Mechanisms

Rick Bass
“I'm surprised when I walk right into yet another abandoned hunters' camp. Tattered plastic sheeting still hangs askew here and there. Blackened aerosol cans of Cheez Whiz sit in the fire pit, which sits in the middle of the trail. Assorted Styro-ware. Rotten leather boots. Where are these people? Are they back in civilization now, appearing to all observers to be as normal as pie, but inwardly ticking like time bombs and spreading their hot poisonous seed through the world like black-breathed plague?”
Rick Bass, The Lost Grizzlies: A Search for Survivors in the Wilderness of Colorado

Alice Gorman
“There are places where litter is acceptable and others where it is not. What is the proper place for space junk? You could say it is the atmosphere: that abandoned satellites and debris should be cremated, ashes to ashes, dust to dust. There鈥檚 a contradiction here. We鈥檝e placed junk where it is perpetually 鈥榦ut of place鈥� as a human object, but in another sense, this is its natural place.”
Alice Gorman, Dr Space Junk vs The Universe: Archaeology and the Future

Craig D. Lounsbrough
“By the time I emerge from them, I have somehow left in the quiet of the woods all that I thought was important when I had entered them. And if the things that I thought to be important become nothing more than litter left in the woods, I might want to begin building my life on the things that will never be left as litter.”
Craig D. Lounsbrough

Donald Firesmith
“I nearly said something, but then thought better of it. It doesn鈥檛 pay to publicly point out the failings of the person providing your paycheck.”
Donald G. Firesmith, What Lurks Below

Steven Sherrill
“The sign says that the Scald Mt. Rod & Gun Club has adopted the highway, but the Minotaur knows an orphan when he sees it.”
Steven Sherrill, The Minotaur Takes His Own Sweet Time

William Rabkin
“I thought it made her happy to help out. You know, the way some people claim to like picking up litter or helping the homeless or standing outside supermarkets trying to get me to sign petitions.”
William Rabkin, A Mind is a Terrible Thing to Read

Simon Pegg
“The Wombles was a hugely popular, animated children's TV series, about a family of diminutive creatures living on Wimbledon Common .... "making good use of the things that [they] find, things that the everyday folks leave behind. " it was essentially a show about recycling ... It became so popular that Merton council, which presides over the borough of Wimbledon, had to deal with a sharp increase in littering, after children desperate to catch a glimpse of these little eco-warriors began willfully discarding rubbish across the common.”
Simon Pegg, Nerd Do Well

Jenny Noble Anderson
“Mother's latitude loosens,
she shakes out her hair,
gets down to the business
of repair鈥�

of tidying up the mess
we've left in her living room.”
Jenny Noble Anderson, But Still She Flies: Poems and Paintings
