He told them that they must live their most creative lives as a means of fighting back against the ruthless furnace of this world.

“There is no life here but the slow death of days, and so when the evil falls on the town, its coming seems almost preordained, sweet and morphic. It is almost as though the town knows the evil was coming and the shape it would take.”
Stephen King, ’Salem’s Lot

“I rarely end up where I was intending to go, but often I end up somewhere I needed to be.”
Douglas Adams, The Long Dark Tea-Time of the Soul

Alex Latimer
“Above us, where the lights of the sky flared up and streaked in all directions, where the scale of stars and galaxies were beyond our comprehension, there was no sadness. And below us, where the ants went about their work late into the night, too small to even be considered by creatures many times their size, there was no sadness.

Alex Latimer, The Space Race

“Stop worrying about your credits and consider enjoying your day. You die at the end.”

Scott  Meyer
“Martin Banks enjoyed science. As a child he read about people who made huge, world-changing discoveries, and he had wondered what emotions he would feel if he ever discovered something really earth-shattering.

Scott Meyer, Off to Be the Wizard
