“But we were all young once. It passes, like innocence and a sense of fair play. The only thing left in the end is a good instinct for survival.”
“There was nothing humane about humanity. At the end of the day, they were allanimals with only survival instincts.”
“We are all yeses. We are worthy enough, we passed inspection, we survived the great fetal oocyte extinctions. In that sense, at least -- call it a mechanospiritual sense -- we are meant to be. We are good eggs, every one of us.”
“So that was the way. No fair play. Once down, that was the end of you.”
“If life were fair, we would never have suffered what we suffered at all; having suffered it and survived, we're still reacting to things that don't exist anymore.”
“You were young, I thought, not once but always before, always always, every day before the day just passed. You were young only minutes ago.”
