“Principle of Temporal Superposition. The future is a tangle of infinite possibilities existing simultaneously, which collapse to a single actuality as the present, the moment we’re in now, advances second by second into the future. Free will exists here, at the point of collapse where each decision is actually made. Trailing the present, the past is fixed; it can be visited but not changed. The future can be visited and interacted with but is unfixed and indeterminate. When I visit the future, I am only visiting the most likely future that would unfold from my moment of departure from the present.”
― Marion G. Harmon, Wearing the Cape

“I lived with the constant awareness that if I cared about you and you figured it out, you’d leave.”
