Just bringing this one back up again. On the nose.

Edit to add the original source: http://humoncomics.com/mother-gaia

Comic with the following conversation: Panel 1 Human approaching Gaia, Gaia looking gently at the human Human: Mother Gaia, I come on behalf of all humans to apologize for destroying nature and beg for forgiveness. Gaia: Oh my beloved self-centered humans... Panel 2 Gaia holds the human in an embrace, both with their eyes closed Human: We're sorry for being so selfish. We never meant to kill nature. Gaia: That wasn't what I mean by self-centered. Nature is adaptable. No matter what you do to it it will simply change and take on new forms. It has survived worse things than you. You are however in the process of changing it so much that you can't live in it. You're not killing nature, you're killing yourself. That's what I mean by self-centered. You think that just because you can't live, then nothing can. Panel 3 Still in the embrace the human's eyes are open with a shocked expression Human: What? Gaia: You're fucking yourself over big time and won't be missed.
