LenaRibka’s Quotes

“Factory settings—a contemporary synonym for fate.”
― Ian McEwan, Machines Like Me

“No one ever could, until they did. We all woke up each morning, unprepared, unable, the world against us. And then we did; moment by moment, we did. And when the heart of someone we loved was on the line, there was never a question. We did. No matter what.”
― Marshall Thornton, Fade Out

“It’s about machines like me and people like you and our future together…the sadness that’s to come. It will happen. With improvements over time…we’ll surpass you…and outlast you…even as we love you.”
― Ian McEwan, Machines Like Me

“Life is a shit sandwich. Two pieces of shit, but between them the most amazing filling, delicious, a taste so wonderful it electrifies your entire body and barely seems real. A filling that inspires us to keep chewing through the worst, hoping to get to that amazing center again. Yes, some of us get a lot more yummy goodness than others, but none of us forgets the deliciousness long enough to stop trying to chomp through the shit.”
― Marshall Thornton, Fade Out

“Europe was not simply a union that chiefly benefited large corporations. The history of the continental member states was vastly different from our own. They had suffered violent revolutions, invasions, occupations and dictatorships. They were therefore only too willing to submerge their identities in a common cause directed from Brussels. We, on the other hand, had lived unconquered for nearly a thousand years. Soon, we would live freely again.”
― Ian McEwan, Machines Like Me
