Book cover for The Revolt of the Angels
Though sceptics in their inmost hearts, they looked upon religion as an instrument of government.
Ana-Maria
Religion as politics

“....We're machines, and machines are objects. Objects are its."

"I'd say you're more than just an object," Dex said.

The robot looked a touch offended. "I would never call you just an animal, Sibling Dex." It turned its gaze to the road, head held high. "We don't have to fall into the same category to be of equal value.”
Becky Chambers, A Psalm for the Wild-Built

Joan Didion
“I can now afford to think about her.
I no longer cry when I hear her name.
I no longer imagine the transporter being called to take her to the morgue after we left the ICU.
Yet I still need her with me.”
Joan Didion, Blue Nights

Rachel Cusk
“Some people write simply because they don’t know how to live in the moment and have to reconstruct it and live in it afterwards.”
Rachel Cusk, Second Place

Charlotte Perkins Gilman
“There you have it. You see, they were Mothers, not in our sense of helpless involuntary fecundity, forced to fill and overfill the land, every land, and then see their children suffer, sin, and die, fighting horribly with one another; but in the sense of Conscious Makers of People. Mother-love with them was not a brute passion, a mere “instinct,” a wholly personal feeling; it was—a religion.”
Charlotte Perkins Gilman, Herland

Yukio Mishima
“I had perceived dimly, too, that the only physical proof of the existence of consciousness was suffering. Beyond doubt, there was a certain splendor in pain, which bore a deep affinity to the splendor that lies hidden within strength.”
Yukio Mishima, Sun & Steel
