“We are the sum total of all our experiences, our lessons, our successes, our failures, our loves, our hates, from birth to death. And if those memories disappear, what then? Who are we?”
― P.J. Manney, (R)evolution

“the brain isn’t a recorder to record reality. It tries to make sense of it, even if the input is completely random or, in some cases, doesn’t exist. Déjà vu, synchronicity, telepathy, clairvoyance, are all the brain’s attempt to make sense of chaos after the fact. You only think it happened before the fact because your brain needs to think so.”
― P.J. Manney, (R)evolution

P.J.’s Quotes

“From whence shall we expect the approach of danger? Shall some trans-Atlantic military giant step the earth and crush us at a blow? Never. All the armies of Europe and Asia...could not by force take a drink from the Ohio River or make a track on the Blue Ridge in the trial of a thousand years. No, if destruction be our lot we must ourselves be its author and finisher. As a nation of free men we will live forever or die by suicide.”
― Abraham Lincoln
