161 " Estamos apenas vagando através da tundra de nossa existência, atribuindo valor ao inútil, quando tudo que amamos e odiamos, tudo em que acreditamos e pelo que lutamos, matamos e morremos é tão sem sentido quanto imagens projetadas sobre acrílico. "
― Blake Crouch , Dark Matter
162 " We're more than the sum total of our choices, that all the paths we might have taken factor somehow into the math of our identity. "
163 " It's terrifying when you consider that every thought we have, every choice we could possibly make, branches off into a new world. "
164 " No one tells you it's all about to change, to be taken away. There's no proximity alert, no indication that you're standing on the precipice. And maybe that's what makes tragedy so tragic. Not just what happens, but how it happens: a sucker punch that comes at you out of nowhere, when you're least expecting it. No time to flinch or brace. "
165 " If you strip away all the trappings of personality and lifestyle, what are the core components that make me me? "
166 " We're all just wandering through the tundra of our existence, assigning value to worthlessness, when all that we love and hate, all we believe in and fight for and kill for and die for is as meaningless as images projected onto Plexiglass. "
167 " We all live day to day completely oblivious to the fact that we’re a part of a much larger and stranger reality than we can possibly imagine. "
168 " He says, “Every moment, every breath, contains a choice. But life is imperfect. We make the wrong choices. So we end up living in a state of perpetual regret, and is there anything worse? I built something that could actually eradicate regret. Let you find worlds where you made the right choice.” Daniela says, “Life doesn’t work that way. You live with your choices and learn. You don’t cheat the system. "
169 " As long as I'm with you, I know exactly who I am. "
170 " It's the beautiful thing about youth.There's a weightlessness that permeates everything because no damning choices have been made, no paths committed to, and the road forking out ahead is pure, unlimited potential. "
171 " For anyone who has wondered what their life might look like at the end of the road not taken. "
172 " I’ve always known, on a purely intellectual level, that our separateness and isolation are an illusion. We’re all made of the same thing—the blown-out pieces of matter formed in the fires of dead stars. "
173 " Until everything topples, we have no idea what we actually have, how precariously and perfectly it all hangs together. "
174 " Is it possible to outthink yourself? "
175 " If there are infinite worlds, how do I find the one that is uniquely, specifically mine? "
176 " When you write something, you focus your full attention on it. It’s almost impossible to write one thing while thinking about another. The act of putting it on paper keeps your thoughts and intentions aligned. "
177 " I can’t help thinking that we’re more than the sum total of our choices, that all the paths we might have taken factor somehow into the math of our identity. "
178 " The older I get, the less I understand. "
179 " There’s something horribly lonely about a place that’s almost home. "
180 " I’m looking for a grain of sand on an infinite beach. "
