“Music is the most multi-demsnional knowledge we have. It's as specific as nature can be. Any form nature takes contains a specific sound combination. Music is a language. It's a memory of the cosmic system, a memory of past and future. Above all it's science not entertainment.”
― Vangelis

“I must not fear.
Fear is the mind-killer.
Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration.

I will face my fear.
I will permit it to pass over me and through me.

And when it has gone past, I will turn the inner eye to see its path.

Where the fear has gone there will be nothing.

Only I will remain.”
― Frank Herbert, Dune

“If we believe most people can't be trusted, that's how we'll treat each other, to everyone's detriment. Few ideas have as much power to shape the world as our view of other people. Because ultimately, you get what you expect to get.”
― Rutger Bregman, Humankind A Hopeful History / Utopia for Realists And How We Can Get There

“Tänä aikana oli näet huonoimmassa asemassa ihminen, joka tahtoi säilyttää silmänsä avoimina ja antoi jokaisen pitää uskonsa. Hänen kimppuunsa näet karkasivat kaikki syytellen ja solvaten häntä veltoksi ja välinpitämättömäksi, tyhmäksi ja paatuneeksi, kovakorvaiseksi ja luopioksi, kunnes hän kiusaantuneena repi vaatteensa ja ummisti silmänsä ja otti ristin tai sarven sen mukaan, miten laski tästä itselleen olevan vähimmin harmia.”
― Mika Waltari, سینوهه
