Additional quotes by Geoffrey West

You could not have evolved a complex system like a city or an organism - with an enormous number of components - without the emergence of laws that constrain their behavior in order for them to be resilient.

Everything around us is scale dependent. It's woven into the fabric of the universe.

The good news is cities are extraordinarily resilient. The bad news is that they are also very hard to change.
