“Myth makes Echo the subject of longing and desire. Physics makes Echo the subject of distance and design. Where emotion and reason are concerned. it's claims are accurate.
And where there is no Echo there is no description of space or love.
There is only silence”
― Mark Z. Danielewski, House of Leaves

“It feels so unbeneficial to pretend to like your life. Would you pretend to yourself or just to the world, and if you pretended to yourself too, then does the pretending become in some way real? And what, anyway, is real?”
― Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie, Dream Count

“We want what we've made to stay long after we're gone. That is how we seek immortality.”
― Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie, Dream Count

“The point of art is to look at our world and be moved by it, and then to engage in a series of attempts at clearly seeing that world, interpreting it, questioning it. In all these forms of engagement, a kind of purity of purpose must prevail. It cannot be a gimmick, it must at some level be true. Only then can we reach reflection, illumination, and finally, hopefully, epiphany.”
― Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie, Dream Count
