“たとえばきみは何のために生きているのかと訊かれたら、ぼくは念のためだと答えるだろう。人が生きている理由なんてその程度のものだし、ぼくが生きている理由もその程度のものだし、大抵の人はその程度のものなのだ。”
― NisiOisiN, Zaregoto, Book 1: The Kubikiri Cycle

“What’s reality? I don’t know. When my bird was looking at my computer monitor I thought, ‘That bird has no idea what he’s looking at.’ And yet what does the bird do? Does he panic? No, he can’t really panic, he just does the best he can. Is he able to live in a world where he’s so ignorant? Well, he doesn’t really have a choice. The bird is okay even though he doesn’t understand the world. You’re that bird looking at the monitor, and you’re thinking to yourself, ‘I can figure this out.’ Maybe you have some bird ideas. Maybe that’s the best you can do.”
― Terry A. Davis

“It was a close place. I took it up, and held it in my hand. I was a trembling, because I'd got to decide, forever, betwixt two things, and I knowed it. I studied a minute, sort of holding my breath, and then says to myself:

'All right, then, I'll go to hell'- and tore it up.”
― Mark Twain, The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn

“My day passes between logic, whistling, going for walks, and being depressed. I wish to God that I were more intelligent and everything would finally become clear to me - or else that I needn’t live much longer.”
― Ludwig Wittgenstein, Letters to Russell, Keynes and Moore
