N.K. Jemisin
“But if you stay, no part of this comm gets to decide that any part of this comm is expendable. No voting on who gets to be people.”
N.K. Jemisin, The Obelisk Gate

N.K. Jemisin
“No, I'm telling this wrong. After all a person is herself and others. Relationships chisel the final shape of one's being. I am me and you.”
N.K. Jemisin, The Obelisk Gate

Jorge Luis Borges
“Things became duplicated in Tlön; they also tend to become effaced and lose their details when they are forgotten. A classic example is the doorway which survived so long as it was visited by a beggar and disappeared at his death. At times some birds, a horse, have saved the ruins of an amphitheater.”
Jorge Luis Borges, Ficciones

Halldór Laxness
“People don't have the imagination to understand politicians. People are too innocent”
Halldór Laxness, The Atom Station

Yuval Noah Harari
“You could never convince a monkey to give you a banana by promising him limitless bananas after death in monkey heaven.”
Yuval Noah Harari, Sapiens: A Brief History of Humankind
