“Ka was like a wheel, its one purpose to turn, and in the end it always came back to the place where it had started.”
― Stephen King, The Waste Lands

“Did they all live happily ever after?

They did not. No one ever does, in spite of what the stories may say. They had their good days, as you do, and they had their bad days, and you know about those. They had their victories, as you do, and they had their defeats, and you know about those, too. There were times when they felt ashamed of themselves, knowing that they had not done their best, and there were times when they knew they had stood where their God had meant them to stand. All I'm trying to say is that they lived as well as they could, each and every one of them; some lived longer than others, but all lived well, and bravely, and I love them all, and am not ashamed of my love.”
― Stephen King, The Eyes of the Dragon

“You should enjoy the little detours to the fullest. Because that's where you'll find the things more important than what you want.”
― Yoshihiro Togashi, Hunter x Hunter, Vol. 32

“There is no period in history when it would have been better to be alive than today. People who fantasise about a romantic past imagine themselves living in Pharaoh’s court, Caesar’s palace, Plato’s athenaeum, a medieval knight’s manor, a king’s castle, a queen’s château, an emperor’s citadel, a cardinal’s cathedral. But the cold, hard reality is that 99.99 per cent of all the people who ever lived existed in what we would today consider squalid poverty.”
― Michael Shermer, Heavens on Earth: The Scientific Search for the Afterlife, Immortality and Utopia
