Sergio de la Pava
“What was I supposed to do then I wondered. Was there even a supposed-to for this kind of situation? A situation when when I looked at my receding past everything seemed retrospectively marked by an extreme order and predictability yet all moments since seemed to obey, and promised to continue obeying, their own set of stochastic, undisclosed, and undiscoverable laws. Where I was fully aware of the pitfalls and folly of a finely-tuned narcissism but still the known universe seemed to bend and bend inexorably inward and towards me where it awaited my next move, supremely ready to react accordingly. And how I knew that decisions I would soon make or defer would have near-Sophoclean import and yet nonetheless it all seemed oddly irrelevant.”
Sergio De La Pava, A Naked Singularity

Louisa May Alcott
“El verdadero talento, la verdadera bondad, no pasan mucho tiempo inadvertidos, pero, aunque así sea, la conciencia de poseerlos y usar bien de ellos debiera satisfacerle a uno, y el mayor encanto de toda cualidad es la modestia.”
Louisa May Alcott, Mujercitas
