“Here’s the deal, Wade. You’re something called a ‘human being.’ That’s a really smart kind of animal. Like every other animal on this planet, we’re descended from a single-celled organism that lived millions of years ago. This happened by a process called evolution, and you’ll learn more about it later. But trust me, that’s really how we all got here. There’s proof of it everywhere, buried in the rocks. That story you heard? About how we were all created by a super-powerful dude named God who lives up in the sky? Total bullshit. The whole God thing is actually an ancient fairy tale that people have been telling one another for thousands of years. We made it all up. Like Santa Claus and the Easter Bunny.”
― Ernest Cline, Ready Player One

“Take off the mask. You aren’t happy? Fine, you aren’t happy. One day you will be. And then you’ll be sad again. Accept that and stop wasting your energy chasing something that doesn’t exist. You can’t spend your life feeling bad about feeling bad.”
― Shaheen Bhatt, I've never been (Un)happier

“You guys win this time! After all, no other creature on Earth is better at "Killing" than you humans! But your weapons... should be used for a better mission! That mission is... to maintain the balance of this world! Soon you'll discover that littering is a worse crime than murder! Eventually you humans will understand our importance and protect us! You will treat your "enemies" as if they are the most important things that you have! And then your "enemies" will restore the beautiful nature to its proper order! and the world will be at balance again!
- Mayor Hirokawa”
― Hitoshi Iwaaki, Parasyte, Volume 9

“I am who I am in the now, and I have to work my life around that. That isn’t giving up; it’s adjusting to the reality of my condition and giving myself a higher chance of living a successful life by not chasing after unrealistic goals.”
