“There is no love, there is only the lie we tell ourselves that things are more important than they actually are, that our lives will have meaning beyond all the other lives that have come before us and been forgotten, that there is hope in any of this.”
― Chad Kultgen, The Lie

“Any damn fool can beg up some kind of job; it takes a wise man to make it without working.”
