Pierce Brown
“And I wonder, in my last moments, if the planet does not mind that we wound her surface or pillage her bounty, because she knows we silly warm things are not even a breath in her cosmic life. We have grown and spread, and will rage and die. And when all that remains of us is our steel monuments and plastic idols, her winds will whisper, her sands will shift, and she will spin on and on, forgetting about the bold, hairless apes who thought they deserved immortality.”
Pierce Brown, Morning Star

Kurt Vonnegut Jr.
“Take care of the people, and god almighty will take care of himself.”
Kurt Vonnegut, The Sirens of Titan

Philip K. Dick
“For each person there is a sentence—a series of words—which has the power to destroy them.”
Philip K. Dick

Jon Kabat-Zinn
“Wherever you go, there you are”

“Empathy comes from the Greek empatheia - em (into) and pathos (feeling) - a penetration, a kind of travel. It suggests you enter another person's pain as you'd enter another country, through immigration and customs, border crossing by way of query: What grows where you are? What are the laws? What animals graze there?”
Leslie Jamison, The Empathy Exams
