Ray Nayler
“We’re monsters to the Octopuses: hunters, destroyers, killing their relatives and laying waste to their world. And they are monsters to us: their motivations inexplicable, their minds totally alien.”
Ray Nayler, The Mountain in the Sea

Ray Nayler
“We are embedded in habit. We dread the truly new, the truly emergent. We don’t fear the end of the world—we fear the end of the world as we know it.”
Ray Nayler, The Mountain in the Sea

Vladimir Nabokov
“And blood-black nothingness began to spin. A system of cells interlinked, within cells interlinked, within cells interlinked within one stem. And dreadfully distinct against the dark, a tall white fountain played.”
Vladimir Nabokov, Pale Fire

“As my friend Julian puts it, only half winkingly: “God blessed me by making me transsexual for the same reason God made wheat but not bread and fruit but not wine, so that humanity might share in the act of creation.”
Daniel Mallory Ortberg, Something That May Shock and Discredit You

Ray Nayler
“The great and terrible thing about humankind is simply this: we will always do what we are capable of.”
Ray Nayler, The Mountain in the Sea
