“In life, there are no true beginnings or endings.”
Gavin Extence, The Universe Versus Alex Woods

Gavin Extence
“In life, there are no true beginnings or endings. Events flow into each other, and the more you try to isolate them in a container, the more they spill over the sides, like canal-water breaching its artificial banks. A related point is that the things we label 'beginnings' and 'endings' are often, in reality, indistinguishable. They are one and the same thing. This is one of the things the Death card symbolizes in tarot - an end that is also a new beginning.”
Gavin Extence, The Universe Versus Alex Woods

Christophe Galfard
“Waking up in the same place in which you dozed off has never happened either to you or to anyone else. Ever. Earth does not stop moving when you sleep. Every hour that passes, Earth travels a little more than 800,000 kilometres around the centre of our galaxy. And so do you. That's the equivalent of about twenty trips around the planet. Every hour. No one minds, though, as long as their bed stays still beneath their body.”
Christophe Galfard, The Universe in Your Hand: A Journey Through Space, Time, and Beyond

Gavin Extence
“Well, for each of us the brain creates a whole, unique universe. It contains everything we know. Everything we see or touch. Everything we feel and remember. In a sense, our brains create all of reality for us. Without the brain, there's nothing. Some people find this idea scary, but I think it's rather beautiful.”
Gavin Extence, The Universe Versus Alex Woods

“How can you trust something that can end as suddenly as it begins?”
