Yuval Noah Harari
“Each and every one of us has been born into a given historical reality, ruled by particular norms and values, and managed by a unique economic and political system. We take this reality for granted, thinking it is natural, inevitable and immutable. We forget that our world was created by an accidental chain of events, and that history shaped not only our technology, politics and society, but also our thoughts, fears and dreams. The cold hand of the past emerges from the grave of our ancestors, grips us by the neck and directs our gaze towards a single future. We have felt that grip from the moment we were born, so we assume that it is a natural and inescapable part of who we are. Therefore we seldom try to shake ourselves free, and envision alternative futures.”
Yuval Noah Harari, Homo Deus: A Brief History of Tomorrow

Yuval Noah Harari
“People are usually afraid of change because they fear the unknown. But the single greatest constant of history is that everything changes.”
Yuval Noah Harari, Homo Deus: A History of Tomorrow

Yuval Noah Harari
“Yet in truth the lives of most people have meaning only within the network of stories they tell one another.”
Yuval Noah Harari, Homo Deus: A Brief History of Tomorrow
