William Gibson
“Things were launching themselves from the ornate sunburst spires, glittering leech shapes made of shifting planes of light. There were hundreds of them, rising in a whirl, their movements random as windblown paper down dawn streets. “Glitch systems,” the voice said.”
William Gibson, Neuromancer

Leonard Susskind
“world seems filled with people who are genuinely, deeply interested in physics but whose lives have taken them in different directions. This book is for all of us.”
Leonard Susskind, Quantum Mechanics: The Theoretical Minimum

Albert Camus
“There have been as many plagues as wars in history; yet always plagues and wars take people equally by surprise.”
Albert Camus, The Plague

Arthur Schopenhauer
“Our greatest sufferings do not lie in the present, as intuitive representations or immediate feeling, but rather in reason, as abstract concepts, tormenting thoughts.”
Arthur Schopenhauer, The World as Will and Representation, Volume I

Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
“While Man's desires and aspirations stir, He cannot choose but err.”
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, Faust
