“What is your itinerary?"
"To meet my maker."
"Ah. Well. You're in luck. And what do you want to say to your maker?"

"A most mechanical and dirty hand [laughs]. I shall have such revenges on you...both. The things I will do, what they are, yet I know not. But they will be the terrors of the earth. You don't know where you are, do you? You're in a prison of your own sins.”
Michael Crichton, Westworld

“There is a phrase from World War I describing warfare as “months of boredom punctuated by moments of terror.” The same applies to long spacecraft missions. And it was a long and frankly terrifying hour as they awaited the hoped-for signal to return from New Horizons.”
Alan Stern, Chasing New Horizons: Inside Humankind's First Mission to Pluto

Aristotle
“Happiness seems to depend on leisure, because we work to have leisure, and wage war to live in peace.”
Aristotle, The Nicomachean Ethics

Jason Fung
“We are wired for feast and famine, not feast, feast, feast.”
Jason Fung, The Complete Guide to Fasting: Heal Your Body Through Intermittent, Alternate-Day, and Extended Fasting

Hannah Arendt
“The truth is that the masses grew out of the fragments of a highly atomized society whose competitive structure and concomitant loneliness of the individual had been held in check only through membership in a class. The chief characteristic of the mass man is not brutality and backwardness, but his isolation and lack of normal social relationships. Coming from the class-ridden society of the nation-state, whose cracks had been cemented with nationalistic sentiment, it is only natural that these masses, in the first helplessness of their new experience, have tended toward an especially violent nationalism, to which mass leaders have yielded against their own instincts and purposes for purely demagogic reasons.”
Hannah Arendt, The Origins of Totalitarianism
