Book cover for All My Rage
I’ll survive this. I’ll live. But there’s a hole in me, never to be filled. Maybe that’s why people die of old age. Maybe we could live forever if we didn’t love so completely. But we do. And by the time old age comes, we’re filled with ...more

Mark Haddon
“And when the universe has finished exploding all the stars will slow down, like a ball that has been thrown into the air, and they will come to a halt and they will all begin to fall towards the centre of the universe again. And then there will be nothing to stop us seeing all the stars in the world because they will all be moving towards us, gradually faster and faster, and we will know that the world is going to end soon because when we look up into the sky at night there will be no darkness, just the blazing light of billions and billions of stars, all falling.”
Mark Haddon, The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-time

Kurt Vonnegut

John Dewey
“Every great advance in science has issued from a new audacity of imagination. ”
John Dewey, The Quest for Certainty: A Study of the Relation of Knowledge and Action

Mark Haddon

And all his molecules were broken down into other molecules and they went into the earth and were eaten by worms and went into the plants and if we go and dig in the same place in 10 years there will be nothing exept his skeleton left. And in 1,000 years even his skeleton will be gone. But that is all right because he is a part of the flowers and the apple tree and the hawthorn bush now.”
Mark Haddon, The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time
