"Yes, still going... very slowly, also because you have to keep your mind to it, even if it's a bit of a page-turner. Circumstances just don't allow me to go faster, also as other books come in-between." Jun 10, 2024 12:40AM

“N'essaye jamais de détrousser quelqu'un qui fait deux fois ta taille et qui porte une épée, surtout s'il est accompagné de deux types du genre de ceux qui sont avec moi! C'est compris?”
Fabien Cerutti, Le Fou prend le Roi

Richard Powers
“Buddha’s words: A tree is a wondrous thing that shelters, feeds, and protects all living things. It even offers shade to the axmen who destroy it.”
Richard Powers, The Overstory

“Alors retiens aussi cette deuxième leçon: la fierté ne t'attirera que des ennuis si tu te fais attraper. Colle-la dans ton froc et fais plutôt mine d'être désolé et d'avoir été obligé par quelqu'un. Invente ce que tu veux, mais ne provoque jamais ceux qui te tiennent en leur pouvoir. Jamais.”
Fabien Cerutti, Le Fou prend le Roi

“Life is terrifying. None of us have a rule book. None of us know what we're doing here. So, the easiest way to stare reality in the face and not utterly lose your shit is to believe that you have control over it. If you believe you have control, then you believe you're at the top. And if you're at the top, then people who aren't like you... well, they've got to be somewhere lower, right? Every species does this. Does it again and again and again. Doesn't matter if they do it to themselves, or another species, or someone they created.”
Becky Chambers, A Closed and Common Orbit

Richard Powers
“What you make from a tree should be at least as miraculous as what you cut down.”
Richard Powers, The Overstory
