“The time has come, the walrus said, to talk of many things . . . of sailing ships and sealing-wax, And whether pigs have wings.”
Richard Bachman, The Running Man

Peter F. Hamilton
“Titles that distinguish us by class devalue people as much as racial classification. Divide and conquer, the go-to strategy of the ruling elite since the Dark Ages.”
Peter F. Hamilton, Salvation Lost

Adrian Tchaikovsky
“personal theory was that the pressure of being in the middle of the food chain was an essential prerequisite for complex intelligence. Like humans (and like Portiid spiders, had he only known), octopuses had developed in a world where they were both hunter and hunted. Top predators, in Senkovi’s assessment, were an intellectual dead end.”
Adrian Tchaikovsky, Children of Ruin

“The fact is that caffeine never gave you energy. It stimulated your nervous system and adrenals, and that’s not energy, it’s stress.”
Stephen Cherniske, Caffeine Blues: Wake Up to the Hidden Dangers of America's #1 Drug

Rosa Montero
“Octavius Augustus became the first Roman emperor because the republic granted him enormous powers. And why did the republic do that? Why did it commit suicide to make way for an empire? Tacitus explains it thus: Cuncta fessa. Which means ‘the whole world is tired.’ Weariness in the face of political and social insecurity is what led to Rome losing its rights and freedoms. Fear induces a hunger for authoritarianism in people. Fear is a really bad adviser.”
Rosa Montero, Tears in Rain
