We should conceive of ourselves not as rulers of Earth, but as highly powerful, conscious stewards: The Earth is given to us in trust, and we can screw it up or make it work well and sustainably.

-- Kim Stanley Robinson 金·斯坦利·罗宾森

我们不应该把自己想象成地球的统治者，而应该想象成高度强大、有意识的管家:地球是托付给我们的，我们可以把它搞砸，或者让它运转良好、可持续。
