Liu Cixin
“No, emptiness is not nothingness. Emptiness is a type of existence. You must use this existential emptiness to fill yourself.”
Liu Cixin, The Three-Body Problem

Bernard Beckett
“You're still just silicon," he said, as he turned the page.
   "And you're just carbon," Art persevered. "Since when has the periodic table been grounds for discrimination?”
Bernard Beckett, Genesis

Bernard Beckett
“We know how to make mind, it is true, but we are a long way from being able to understand it.”
Bernard Beckett, Genesis

Tara Westover
“The decisions I made after that moment were not the ones she would have made. They were the choices of a changed person, a new self.
You could call this selfhood many things. Transformation. Metamorphosis. Falsity. Betrayal.
I call it an education”
Tara Westover, Educated

Yuval Noah Harari
“Culture tends to argue that it forbids only that which is unnatural. But from a biological perspective, nothing is unnatural. Whatever is possible is by definition also natural. A truly unnatural behaviour, one that goes against the laws of nature, simply cannot exist, so it would need no prohibition.”
Yuval Noah Harari, Sapiens: A Brief History of Humankind
