James L. Cambias
“This is more important than food. This is science!”
James L. Cambias, A Darkling Sea

Wayne Gerard Trotman
“Sarcasm is a manifestation of anger, and anger can make you the puppet of your opponents.”
Wayne Gerard Trotman, Kaya Abaniah and the Father of the Forest

“Brains are survival engines, not truth detectors. If self-deception promotes fitness, the brain lies. Stops noticing—irrelevant things. Truth never matters. Only fitness. By now you don’t experience the world as it exists at all. You experience a simulation built from assumptions. Shortcuts. Lies. Whole species is agnosiac by default.”
Peter Watts, Blindsight

Edith Hamilton
“Genius moves to creation, not to destruction. Only a very few have combined both.”
Edith Hamilton

Bertrand de Jouvenel
“There is a tyranny in the womb of every Utopia.”
Bertrand De Jouvenel
