"Even on the first couple of pages I could sense that this book has that magic “Oh wow, this is great and I have no idea why.” The narrative progresses in such a smooth, organic and psychologically convincing way. I’m getting into that territory where I forget to eat because I want to keep reading." 10 hours, 47 min ago

"One of my greatest passions, besides literature, is to tinker in private with agricultural machinery. I am particularly fond of John Deere tractors. But lately old Yamaha machines from the 90s have caught my deeper interest. Just kidding… I have no idea why I read this book." Mar 10, 2026 05:20AM

Ted Chiang
“The universe began as an enormous breath being held. Who knows why, but whatever the reason, I'm glad it did, because I owe my existence to that fact. All my desires and ruminations are no more and no less than eddy currents generated by the gradual exhalation of our universe. And until this great exhalation is finished, my thoughts live on.”
Ted Chiang, Exhalation

Ted Chiang
“Even if a universes's life span is calculable , the variety of life that is generated within it is not. The buildings we have erected, the art and music and verse we have composed, the very lives we've led: none of them could have been predicted, because none of them was inevitable... The fact that it {universe} spawned such plenitude is a miracle...”
Ted Chiang, Exhalation

Albert Camus
“Be careful. When a democracy is sick, fascism comes to its bedside, but it is not to inquire about its health.”
Albert Camus

Charles Horton Cooley
“I am not what I think I am, and I am not what you think I am. I am what I think you think I am.”
Charles Horton Cooley

Sheila Heti
“It is only when you get older that everyone makes you feel bad about being alone, or implies that spending time with other people is somehow better, because it proves you to be likeable.

But being unlikeable wasn't the reason she was alone. She was alone so she could hear herself thinking. She was alone so she could hear herself living.”
Sheila Heti, Pure Colour
