Quotes by Raeden Richardson (?)

“All energy tends to zero. Here, gone. A motorcycle, when drained of petrol, slows to a halt and stops. A man’s fortune, at the end of his life, passes from hand to hand and dwindles away. Bones are brittle. The blood cools. We insist that life is about accumulation, yet the path always leads to zero.”
― Raeden Richardson, The Degenerates
