Paradise-1 Quotes

“Nothing stands still, in space. Every object that exists, exists in constant motion. Moons orbit planets, planets orbit stars. Stars orbit the super-massive black holes at the centers of galaxies, and galaxies trace their own tracks across the sky, expanding ever outward. Every rock, every cloud of gas between the stars, every person, every sub-atomic particle in the universe is moving, all the time.”

“I threw away a whole career, once. You know that.” “Yeah. I remember,” she said. It was what had brought them together, actually. The day they’d met he’d looked so – not sad. Just confused. Befuddled was the word. Like he’d had the whole world in the palm of his hand and he’d just blundered and dropped it.”
