Leo Tolstoy
“Caius is a man, men are mortal, therefore Caius is mortal,” had always seemed to him correct as applied to Caius, but certainly not as applied to himself. That Caius — man in the abstract — was mortal, was perfectly correct, but he was not Caius, not an abstract man, but a creature quite, quite separate from all others.”
Leo Tolstoy, The Death of Ivan Ilyich

Emily St. John Mandel
“Jeevan found himself thinking about how human the city is, how human everything is. We bemoaned the impersonality of the modern world, but that was a lie, it seemed to him; it had never been impersonal at all. There had always been a massive delicate infrastructure of people, all of them working unnoticed around us, and when people stop going to work, the entire operation grinds to a halt. No one delivers fuel to the gas stations or the airports. Cars are stranded. Airplanes cannot fly. Trucks remain at their points of origin. Food never reaches the cities; grocery stores close. Businesses are locked and then looted. No one comes to work at the power plants or the substations, no one removes fallen trees from electrical lines. Jeevan was standing by the window when the lights went out.”
Emily St. John Mandel, Station Eleven

Ray Nayler
“Every animal's perception of the world, constructed by its evolved sensory apparatus and nervous system to take best advantage of its environment, is subjective - there are no colors out there, as we perceive them, waiting for us. There is no sound - only waveforms. And perhaps the strangest fact of all: Outside our bodies, there is no pain. Pain is something we create.”
Ray Nayler, The Mountain in the Sea

Michael R. Fletcher
“What’s your perfect world?” he asked the horse. “Typical horse stuff. Plenty of grass. Endless fields to run free. The complete and utter collapse of what you consider civilization which is actually a codified system for abuse, cruelty, and domination.” Most of that sounded pretty good.”
Michael R. Fletcher, A War to End All

Pierce Brown
“Home isn't where you're from, it's where you find light when all grows dark.”
Pierce Brown, Golden Son
