«In wilderness I sense the miracle of life, and behind it our scientific accomplishments fade to trivia.»
«Trivia is a game played by those who realize that they have misspent their youth but do not want to let go of it.»
«[The game of] Trivia, like camp, is a product of the heart, not of the mind. It's a social disease, it's little things for little minds. It's the last time you're able to act immature, to act like the college kid.»
«The most refined skills of color printing, the intricate techniques of wide-angle photography, provide us pictures of trivia bigger and more real than life. We forget that we see trivia and notice only that the reproduction is so good. Man fulfils his dream and by photographic magic produces a precise image of the Grand Canyon. The result is not that he adores nature or beauty the more. Instead he adores his camera -- and himself.»
