Jack Kerouac
“And I saw how everybody dies and nobody's going to care. I felt how it is to live just so you can die like a bull trapped in a screaming human ring.”
Jack Kerouac, Lonesome Traveler

Jordan B. Peterson
“If you don't say what you think then you kill your unborn self.”
Jordan B. Peterson

Clark Ashton Smith
“Only the impossible has any real charm; the possible has been vulgarized by happening too often.”
Clark Ashton Smith

Vladimir Nabokov
“Yes, I need you, my fairy-tale. Because you are the only person I can talk with about the shade of a cloud, about the song of a thought — and about how, when I went out to work today and looked a tall sunflower in the face, it smiled at me with all of its seeds.”
Vladimir Nabokov, Letters to Vera

“Do you not find consciousness alone to be the most exhilarating thing? Here we are, in this incomprehensibly large universe, on this one tiny moon around this one incidental planet, and in all the time this entire scenario has existed, every component has been recycled over and over and over again into infinitely incredible configurations, and sometimes, those configurations are special enough to be able to see the world around them. You and I—we’re just atoms that arranged themselves the right way, and we can understand that about ourselves. Is that not amazing?”
Becky Chambers, A Psalm for the Wild-Built
