“But if I'm it, the last of my kind, the last page of human history, like hell I'm going to let the story end this way. I may be the last one, but I am the one still standing.

― Rick Yancey, The 5th Wave

“Maybe it's not really lying if you barely know you're doing it. It should be true. It's the way it should be, in an ideal world.”
