Weisser plainly treasures threse feelings and these relationships. She is quick to insist that at root her love is about "the deep pleasure, even joy, of sharing life with a different being, one whose thought, feelings, reactions, and probably survival needs are different from ours. And somehow in order for all the species in thi "band" to thrive, we have to learn to understand and respect those things.
Donna J. Haraway Quotes: Weisser plainly treasures threse feelings
We are training each other in acts of communication we barely understand. We are, constitutively, companion species.
Donna J. Haraway Quotes: We are training each other
Cyborgs are not reverent; they do not re-member the cosmos. They are wary of holism, but needy for connection- they seem to have a natural feel for united front politics, but without the vanguard party. The main trouble with cyborgs, of course, is that they are the illegitimate offspring of militarism and patriarchal capitalism, not to mention state socialism. But illegitimate offspring are often exceedingly unfaithful to their origins.
Donna J. Haraway Quotes: Cyborgs are not reverent; they
Consciousness of exclusion through naming is acute. Identities seem contradictory, partial, and strategic.
Donna J. Haraway Quotes: Consciousness of exclusion through naming
The cyborg is a kind of disassembled and reassembled, postmodern collective and personal self. This is the self feminists must code.

Myth and tool mutually constitute each other.
Donna J. Haraway Quotes: Myth and tool mutually constitute
Cyborg writing must not be about the Fall, the imagination of a once-upon-a-time wholeness before language, before writing, before Man. Cyborg writing is about the power to survive, not on the basis of original innocence, but on the basis of seizing the tools to mark the world that marked them as other.
Donna J. Haraway Quotes: Cyborg writing must not be
Life is a window of vulnerability.

The cyborg is a creature in a post-gender world; it has no truck with bisexuality, pre-oedipal symbiosis, unalienated labour, or other seductions to organic wholeness through a final appropriation of all the powers of the parts into a higher unity.
Donna J. Haraway Quotes: The cyborg is a creature
I am making an argument for the cyborg as a fiction mapping our social and bodily reality and as an imaginative resource suggesting some very fruitful couplings. Michael Foucault's biopolitics is a flaccid premonition of cyborg politics, a very open field.
Donna J. Haraway Quotes: I am making an argument
The Anthropocene marks severe discontinuities; what comes after will not be like what came before. I think our job is to make the Anthropocene as short/thin as possible and to cultivate with each other in every way imaginable epochs to come that can replenish refuge. (100)
Donna J. Haraway Quotes: The Anthropocene marks severe discontinuities;
I'd rather be a Cyborg than a Goddess
Donna J. Haraway Quotes: I'd rather be a Cyborg
The cyborg would not recognize the garden of Eden; it is not made of mud and cannot dream of returning to dust.
Donna J. Haraway Quotes: The cyborg would not recognize
Movements for animal rights are not irrational denials of human uniqueness; they are a clear-sighted recognition of connection across the discredited breach of nature and culture. Biology and evolutionary theory over the last two centuries have simultaneously produced modern organisms as objects of knowledge and reduced the line between humans and animals to a faint trace re-etched in ideological struggle or professional disputes between life and social science. Within this framework, teaching modern Christian creationism should be fought as a form of child abuse.
Donna J. Haraway Quotes: Movements for animal rights are
Single vision produces worse illusions than double vision or many-headed monsters.
Donna J. Haraway Quotes: Single vision produces worse illusions
There are so many losses already, and there will be may more. Renewed generative flourishing cannot grow from myths of immortality or failure to become-with the dead and the extinct. (101)
Donna J. Haraway Quotes: There are so many losses
Anyone who has done historical research knows that the undocumented often have more to say about how the world is put together than do the well pedigreed.
Donna J. Haraway Quotes: Anyone who has done historical
Feminist objectivity means quite simply situated knowledges
Donna J. Haraway Quotes: Feminist objectivity means quite simply
Scientific practice is above all a story-telling practice ... Biology is inherently historical, and its form of discourse is inherently narrative ... Biology as a way of knowing the world is kin to Romantic literature, with its discourse about organic form and function. Biology is the fiction appropriate to objects called organisms; biology fashions the facts "discovered" about organic beings.
Donna J. Haraway Quotes: Scientific practice is above all
For salamanders, regeneration after injury, such as the loss of a limb, involves regrowth of structure and restoration of function with the constant possibility of twinning or other odd topographical productions at the site of former injury. The regrown limb can be monstrous, duplicated, potent. We have all been injured, profoundly. We require regeneration, not rebirth, and the possibilities for our reconstitution include the utopian dream of the hope for a monstrous world without gender
Donna J. Haraway Quotes: For salamanders, regeneration after injury,
Irony is about contradictions that do not resolve into larger wholes, even dialectically, about the tension of holding incompatible things together because both or all are necessary and true. Irony is about humour and serious play. It is also a rhetorical strategy and a political method, one I would like to see more honoured within socialist-feminism.
Donna J. Haraway Quotes: Irony is about contradictions that
Our bodies, with the old genetic transmission, have not kept pace with the new language-produced cultural transmission of technology. So now, when social control breaks down, we must expect to see pathological destruction.
