And so everybody, knowing the meaninglessness of existence, sets the center of his compass at his own home.”
― Abe Kōbō, The Woman in the Dunes

“Learning to ignore things is one of the great paths to inner peace.”
― Robert J. Sawyer, Calculating God

“The most frightening thing in the world is to discover the abnormal in that which is closest to us.”
