“...what are the comprehensible terrors of man compared with the interlinked terrors and wonders of God!”
― Herman Melville, Moby-Dick or, The Whale

“I promise nothing complete; because any human thing supposed to be complete, must for that very reason infallibly be faulty.”
― Herman Melville, Moby-Dick or, The Whale

“In what census of living creatures, the dead of mankind are include...how it is that to his name who yesterday departed for the other world, we prefix so significant and infidel a word, and yet do not thus entitle him, if he but embarks for the remotest Indies of this living Earth; why the Life Insurance Companies pay death forfeitures upon immortals; in what eternal, unstirring paralysis, and deadly hopeless trance, yet lies antique Adam, who died sixty round centuries ago; how it is that we still refuse to be comforted for those who we nevertheless maintain are dwelling in unspeakable bliss; why all the living so strive to hush all the dead; wherefore but the rumour of a knocking in a tomb will terrify a whole city. All these things are not without their meanings.”
― Hermann Melville

“The world's greatest computer is the human mind, not the machine.”
― Matshona Dhliwayo
