“Invention, it must be humbly admitted, does not consist in creating out of void, but out of chaos; the materials must, in the first place, be afforded: it can give form to dark, shapeless substances, but cannot bring into being the substance itself.”
― Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley, Frankenstein

“Chaos was the law of nature; Order was the dream of man.”
― Henry Adams, The Education of Henry Adams

“I am a product of the flames which burnt me; the anvil which forged me; and the will that made me grow formidable instead of breaking.”
― Jeff Mach, There and Never, Ever Back Again: Diary of a Dark Lord

“Chaos is what we've lost touch with. This is why it is given a bad name. It is feared by the dominant archetype of our world, which is Ego, which clenches because its existence is defined in terms of control.”
― Terence McKenna
