“It feels like her heart is being squeezed into pulp, the pain so great that her muffled keen is as much from the simple physical feeling as the grief.
Have you ever lost a person?... There's like a crack in your life that doesn't ever really go away.
She can feel it, already formed. A dark rift into which all the plans and hopes and dreams of her friend have disappeared forever, a fissure that cuts across the future and splits it off forever from what could have been, and the more she contemplates it, the more it feels like it'll pull her in too, sink her through inky depths that will crush her like an empty soda can.
And she does get pulled in, and she does get crushed, and for a time all the world is reduced to the compact agony.”
― Pokemon: The Origin of Species

“Letting others keep you safe is a risk in itself, a gamble on the long run that you'll always be protected.”

“Since I offer no apology, I will give instead advice, the last and best that I can give you in the life you now embark on: do not wonder if the ends justify the means. Such a question is sophistry of the worst kind. There are no means. There are no ends. There are only the worlds you may inhabit through your actions, and the world that will be forced upon you if you do not act.”

“The sciences, each straining in its own direction, have hitherto harmed us little; but some day the piecing together of dissociated knowledge will open up such terrifying vistas of reality, and of our frightful position therein, that we shall either go mad from the revelation or flee from the deadly light into the peace and safety of a new dark age. ”
