“You could never convince a monkey to give you a banana by promising him limitless bananas after death in monkey heaven.”

“Yet none of these things exists outside the stories that people invent and tell one another. There are no gods in the universe, no nations, no money, no human rights, no laws and no justice outside the common imagination of human beings.”
― Yuval Noah Harari, Sapiens: A Brief History of Humankind

“Telling effective stories is not easy. The difficulty lies not in telling the story, but in convincing everyone else to believe it.”
― Yuval Noah Harari, Sapiens: A Brief History of Humankind

“Even if cosmopolitan trees and shrubs are free to grow wherever they like in the yard, I can't help but hear a melody emanating from the blossoms and leaves everywhere.”
― Siddhartha Sur, The Void Within
