Richard Dawkins
“We are going to die, and that makes us the lucky ones. Most people are never going to die because they are never going to be born. The potential people who could have been here in my place but who will in fact never see the light of day outnumber the sand grains of Arabia. Certainly those unborn ghosts include greater poets than Keats, scientists greater than Newton. We know this because the set of possible people allowed by our DNA so massively exceeds the set of actual people. In the teeth of these stupefying odds it is you and I, in our ordinariness, that are here.”
Richard Dawkins

Charles Bukowski
“I guess the only time most people think about injustice is when it happens to them.”
Charles Bukowski, Ham on Rye

James Hogg
“…he knew no other pleasure but what consisted in opposition.”
James Hogg, The Private Memoirs and Confessions of a Justified Sinner

D.B. Reynolds
“I trust you. But I'm also going with you."

"Of course you are. Because, my Cyn, if the shit hits the fan--"

"When the shit hits the fan."

"--I trust you to be there to turn the damn fan off.”
D.B. Reynolds, Deception

Erich Maria Remarque
“To be alone—the eternal refrain of life. It wasn’t better or worse than anything else. One talked too much about it. One was always and never alone. A violin, suddenly—somewhere out of a twilight—in a garden on the hills around Budapest. The heavy scent of chestnuts. The wind. And dreams crouched on one’s shoulders like young owls, their eyes becoming lighter in the dusk. A night that never became night. The hour when all women were beautiful.”
Erich Maria Remarque, Arch of Triumph: A Novel of a Man Without a Country
