“Fear of each other created law, fear of the unknown created religion”

“We've spent so much time judging what other people created that we've created very, very little of our own.”

“That’s how a scary story works. It echoes some ancient fear. It re-creates some forgotten terror. Something we’d like to think we’ve grown beyond. But it can still scare us to tears. It’s something you’d hoped was healed.”

“It can be really painful to have to face how fucked up shit is and how scared people are…of being alive. Scared of things that are amazing. Scared of things that aren’t like television or aren’t dead. A lot of people can’t deal with three-dimensional human beings, they only know how to deal with other products — they see themselves as other products. When the world only treats you like a dot on a marketing scheme, you can learn to treat yourself and other people like that.”

“I want you to invent it. I want you to have that skill. To create your own reality. Your own set of laws. I want to try and teach you that.”

“If emotion can create a physical action, then duplicating the physical action can re-create the emotion.”

“Hey, you created me! I didn't create some loser alter-ego to make myself feel better. Take some responsibility!”
