“A book is made from a tree. It is an assemblage of flat, flexible parts (still called "leaves") imprinted with dark pigmented squiggles. One glance at it and you hear the voice of another person, perhaps someone dead for thousands of years. Across the millennia, the author is speaking, clearly and silently, inside your head, directly to you. Writing is perhaps the greatest of human inventions, binding together people, citizens of distant epochs, who never knew one another. Books break the shackles of time ― proof that humans can work magic.”
― Carl Sagan

“Not a whit, we defy augury: there's a special

now; if it be not now, yet it will come: the
readiness is all.”
― William Shakespeare, Hamlet

“Violence is the last refuge of the incompetent.”
― Isaac Asimov, Foundation

“It is said that the Devil has all the best tunes.
This is broadly true. But Heaven has the best choreographers”
― Terry Pratchett, Good Omens: The Nice and Accurate Prophecies of Agnes Nutter, Witch
