Letter to a Phoenix Quotes

“In all the universe only the human race has ever reached a high level of intelligence without reaching a high level of sanity. We are unique.”
― Fredric Brown, Letter to a Phoenix

“The human race will last. Everywhere and forever, for it will never be sane and only insanity is divine. Only the mad destroy themselves and all they have wrought.
And only the phoenix lives forever.”
― Fredric Brown, Letter to a Phoenix

“Fortunately, I have forgotten most of the things that have happened to me. Fortunately, the mind has a limited capacity for remembering. It would be horrible if I remembered the details of a hundred and eighty thousand years—the details of four thousand lifetimes that I have lived since the first great atomic war.”
― Fredric Brown, Letter to a Phoenix
