“Children begin by loving their parents; as they grow older they judge them; sometimes they forgive them.”

“So if you were a boy band, you’d be One Erection,” I state, rambling because they have me nervous.”

“There was no better way to convince a righteous man to do the unrighteous thing than by using his own words against him.”

“The most to which we can ever aspire is not to break free from the cage that sits around us as some may believe, but that instead we might choose one that best suits our needs. A home for a captive lizard is not suitable for a bird. A gorilla is displeased by an environment that would be bliss for a snake.
Do not mistake me—it is better to hate your cage and search for something more than to be complacent. That we might find our cage a Heaven or a Hell is far more preferable to wanting nothing at all. Ants care not whose dirt they dwell in.
Hate your cage. Find another. Build it with your own bare hands if you must—but understand that it is a cage all the same. Embrace it. Fashion it with pride. Make it your home.
There is no such thing as freedom for our species.”
― Kathryn Ann Kingsley, The Puppeteer
