"The greatest trick that the Devil has ever pulled is convincing us that he doesn't exist." (or something like that) -heard on The Usual Suspects movie
"Recent events reminded me, however, that truth is paradoxical, that it is always stranger than fiction. We invent fiction either to distract ourselves from the world - and thus from the truth of things - or to explain the world to ourselves, but we cannot invent truth, which simply is. Truth, when we recognize it, always surprises us, which is why we so seldom choose recognize it; we abhor profound surprises and prefer what is familiar, comfortable, undemanding, and pat."
-from Relentless by Dean Koontz
"Try to learn something about everything and everything about something." -Thomas H. Huxley
"In the hearts of modern men and women, there is an inescapapble awareness that something is wrong with this slice of history they have inherited, that in spite of the towering cities and the mighty armies and the science-fiction technology made real, the moment is fragile, the foundation undermined." -from Relentless by Dean Koontz
