“Don't tempt fate.’

‘My fate? I already know it and I have it in front of me.’ He put an arm around me and pulled me to his lips.

‘I haven't said “yes” yet.’

‘No need. I know what the answer is.”

“You think of yourself as an "individual person", with a unique and separate mind. You think you are born and you think you die. All your life you feel separate and alone. Sometimes desperately so. You fear death because you fear the loss of individuality. All this is an illusion. You, he, she, those things around you living or not, the stars and galaxies, the empty space in between- these are not distinct, separate objects. All is fundamentally entangled.”
― Douglas Preston, Blasphemy

“It's a very bad habit, but one I find hard to break.”
― Douglas Preston & Lincoln Child

“The simplest explanation is most often the correct one.”
― Lincoln Child, The Third Gate
