![“[On 9/11:] ... those towers represented human triumph over nature. Larger than life, built to be unburnable, they were the Titanic of our day. For them to burn and fall so quickly means that the whole superstructure we depend upon to mitigate nature and assure our comfort and safety could fall.” quote by Starhawk](https://sms4smile.com/quotes/img-quotes/5bc/starhawk-3881_built_on-9-11-those-towers-represented-human-t_166623.jpg)
