― John Scalzi, Lock In

“Ignorance is not bad faith. But persistence in ignorance is.”
― Joanna Russ, How to Suppress Women's Writing

“Money. An instrument invented in ancient temple complexes, to keep track of debt: counters that acquired mobility and went a-walking, weaving webs of debt into vast and intricate meshes, enslaving and directing the labor of billions in service of the obligations created by its issuance. . . .

― Charles Stross, Neptune's Brood
