“This generation will witness social and economic changes in our societies, that will be irreversible, thanks to AI.”
A.R. Merrydew

Ralph Ellison
“Yes, they think we're dumb. They call us the "common people." But I've been sitting here listening and looking and trying to understand what's so common about us. I think they're guilty of a gross mis-statement of fact-we are the uncommon people-”
Ralph Ellison, Invisible Man

Jalal ad-Din Muhammad ar-Rumi
“An eye is meant to see things.
The soul is here for its own joy.

A head has one use: For loving a true love.
Feet: To chase after.

Love is for vanishing into the sky. The mind,
for learning what men have done and tried to do.

Mysteries are not to be solved: The eye goes blind
when it only wants to see why.

A lover is always accused of something.
But when he finds his love, whatever was lost
in the looking comes back completely changed.”
Mawlana Jalal-al-Din Rumi, Night and Sleep

Rebecca Skloot
“Only cells that had been transformed by a virus or a genetic mutation had the potential to become immortal.”
Rebecca Skloot, The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks

K.  Ritz
“If one does not react to gossip, the informer hushes more quickly.”
K. Ritz, Sheever's Journal, Diary of a Poison Master
