Quotes by Mark Christensen (?)

“In the new century science will defeat famine, boredom, and the plague, but . . . vital knowledge will become so elevated that nobody will know how anything works. . . . the good news is that everybody will be empowered; the bad news is nobody will understand why.”
― Mark Christensen, Aloha: A Novel of the Near Future

“I notice that the goddamn glue is blobbing all over the plastic and Matt wants to know, "Dad, don't you think you should read the directions?" and I want to tell my son: Don't you realize that I've never read the directions to anything in my life?”
― Mark Christensen, Super Car: The Story of the Xeno
