“Part of us is always the observer, and no matter what, it observes. It watches us. It does not care if we are happy or unhappy, if we are sick or well, if we live or die. It’s only job is to sit there on our shoulder and pass judgment on whether we are worthwhile human beings.”
― Richard Bach, The Bridge Across Forever: A True Love Story – A New York Times Bestselling Philosophical Memoir of Hope and Intimacy

“Seems to be a deep instinct in human beings for making everything compulsory that isn't forbidden.”
― Robert A. Heinlein, The Moon Is a Harsh Mistress

“OFF THE COUCH! BAD KITTIES!”
― Jon Scieszka, Who Done It?
