Robin Sacredfire
“The future is meant to be a secret for those that can't handle life. Premonitions and the ability to see into the future, are only given to those that have the wisdom to make the right decisions, from which, accepting happiness is the most basic one.”
Robin Sacredfire

Stanisław Lem
“What was civilization ever, really, but the attempt by man to talk himself into being good?”
Stanisław Lem, The Futurological Congress: From the Memoirs of Ijon Tichy
