“The brain represented the most complex organism ever to exist, and impossible to tame. Morality could not be spawned by tweaking a few genes or shutting off a few neurons. Not yet. So though humanity conquered the very stars, it remained unable to conquer the darkness within.”

“You’re covered in blood again.”
“I really am.”
“Why are you always covered in blood when I wake up after being unconscious?”
