"What we inherit is not just ideas but ways of seeing and being in the world."
"Purity and danger are not intrinsic qualities of things, but classifications depending on how we view the world."
"The abominations of Leviticus make sense once you understand the dietary laws are about maintaining categories."
"Pollution is a matter of perspective and social order."
"What is unclassified is dangerous because it threatens our understanding of the world."
