“God made mud.
God got lonesome.
So God said to some of that mud, "Sit up!"
"See all I've made", said God, "the hills, the sea, the sky, the stars."
And I was some of the mud that got to sit up and look around.
Lucky me, lucky mud.”
― Kurt Vonnegut, Cat’s Cradle

“I am invisible, understand, simply because people refuse to see me. Like the bodiless heads you see sometimes in circus sideshows, it is as though I have been surrounded by mirrors of hard, distorting glass. When they approach me they see only my surroundings, themselves or figments of their imagination, indeed, everything and anything except me.”
― Ralph Ellison, Invisible Man

“A person who doesn't learn from the past is an idiot, in my estimation.”
― Stephen King, 11/22/63

“The world is a possibility if only you'll discover it.”
― Ralph Ellison, Invisible Man
