Death's End (Remembrance of Earth’s Past, #3)

by Liu Cixin

Human society was as fragile as a sand castle on the beach, prone to collapse with a passing gale.

And we still are, just now our sandcastles come with Wi-Fi & a false sense of permanence.

“At every moment in history, you can find endless missed opportunities.”

Oh, if only there were a Time Machine! Humanity could finally put an end to the endless cycle of ‘shoulda, coulda, woulda.’ But then again, maybe there’s a reason for all those regrets.

The ultimate fate of all intelligent beings has always been to become as grand as their thoughts.
