“Why may writing letters be so intriguing, defying, or challenging? Why can it be so painful or stressful sometimes? Letters can become mirrors of our human condition, reflecting on fragility, resilience, vulnerability, hope, and the misunderstandings in our life experiences. ("Letter to unknown recipient “)”
― Erik Pevernagie

“What do we actually expect of our data processor? As our computers acquire interactive interfaces, voices, and adaptive behavior, we may be tempted to invest emotion in them, but they offer only simulation, which breeds intense irritation. It is like trying to love a mirror that won't love back. ("My computer does not understand me")”

“Let us not live life in abstractions but in concrete moments.
If we want to exist, we must exist “with”, and that “with” is most relevant when we live related. Living with others enlightens the existential significance of our presence in the world. (“Better a good neighbor than a faraway friend.”)”
― Erik Pevernagie

“Every so often, we see many people feel uncomfortable with facing the truth. The truth seems to be a brittle deer. We should, however, not fear the fragility of truth, for it creates openness to correction, learning, and growth. It fosters empathy, making inquiry, curiosity, and wisdom possible. Truth becomes less about possession and more about pursuit. (Is it a bird? Is it a plane?)”
