maxwell’s Quotes

“Nothing tells you that you are not on Earth anymore than exhaling at one price and inhaling at another.”
― Ian McDonald, New Moon

“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
