Aldous Huxley
“The real hopeless victims of mental illness are to be found among those who appear to be most normal. "Many of them are normal because they are so well adjusted to our mode of existence, because their human voice has been silenced so early in their lives, that they do not even struggle or suffer or develop symptoms as the neurotic does." They are normal not in what may be called the absolute sense of the word; they are normal only in relation to a profoundly abnormal society. Their perfect adjustment to that abnormal society is a measure of their mental sickness. These millions of abnormally normal people, living without fuss in a society to which, if they were fully human beings, they ought not to be adjusted.”
Aldous Huxley, Brave New World Revisited

Kurt Vonnegut Jr.
“People have to talk about something just to keep their voice boxes in working order so they'll have good voice boxes in case there's ever anything really meaningful to say.”
Kurt Vonnegut, Cat’s Cradle

Sayaka Murata
“The normal world has no room for exceptions and always quietly eliminates foreign objects. Anyone who is lacking is disposed of.

So that’s why I need to be cured. Unless I’m cured, normal people will expurgate me. Finally I understood why my family had tried so hard to fix me.”
Sayaka Murata, Convenience Store Woman

Aldous Huxley
“A love of nature keeps no factories busy.”
Aldous Huxley, Brave New World

Sayaka Murata
“On Earth, young women were supposed to fall in love and have sex, and if they didn't, they were "lonely" or "bored" or "wasting their youth and would regret it later!”
Sayaka Murata, Earthlings
