Chris’s Quotes

“Shit jobs tend to be blue collar and pay by the hour, whereas bullshit jobs tend to be white collar and salaried.”

“Since evidence is objective and proof is subjective, no one will ever prove to the masses that an afterlife exists. You can show some people the evidence and they might conclude that the evidence equals proof to them, but there will always be just as many people who are unconvinced by that same evidence.”
― Bob Olson, Answers about the Afterlife: A Private Investigator's 15-Year Research Unlocks the Mysteries of Life after Death

“It smelled of the past, of a time before computers, before information was “Googled” and “blogged.” Before laptops and BlackBerries and all the other tools that mistook information for knowledge.”
― Louise Penny, Bury Your Dead

“These bits of paper are covered with lies. They poison your minds. And so long as they exist, you cannot hope to see the world as it truly is.(...)You turn to them for answers and salvation. (...) You rely more upon them than upon yourselves. This makes you weak and stupid. You trust in words. Drops of ink. Do you ever stop to think of who put them there? Or why? No. You simply accept their words without question. And what if those words speak falsely, as they often do? This is dangerous.”
― Oliver Bowden, Assassin's Creed: The Secret Crusade
