Carl Sagan
“Somewhere, something incredible is waiting to be known.”
Carl Sagan

Jonathan Moeller
“He who fights monsters must take care,â€� said Mazael, “lest he become one.”
Jonathan Moeller, Demonsouled Omnibus One

Maureen F. McHugh
“Like I told you, I’m not interested. I think the party is mostly a means of advancing one’s career anyway.â€�

“Exactly, and your decision not to join is a political decision.�

“Well, then my political decision is to not be political."

“Exactly, that’s a political statement. You are expressing your opinion about current politics. Except you are political, everything we do is political…�

“It’s a practical decision, not a political one� We don’t have to analyze everyone’s lives for motives.�

“I wasn’t saying it’s wrong� I was just pointing out that your life says something about your politics whether you think about them or not. You can either just let that happen or you can think about the kind of choices you want to make.�

“I’d like to continue to make my choices because they fit my life rather than out of some sense of ideology� In my experience ideology is a lot like religion; it’s a belief system and most people cling to it long after it becomes clear that their ideology doesn’t describe the real world…�

“That’s as pure a description of an applied political theory as any I’ve ever heard.”
Maureen F. McHugh

Ursula K. Le Guin
“Things don't have purposes, as if the universe were a machine, where every part has a useful function. What's the function of a galaxy? I don't know if our life has a purpose and I don't see that it matters. What does matter is that we're a part. Like a thread in a cloth or a grass-blade in a field. It is and we are. What we do is like wind blowing on the grass.”
Ursula K. Le Guin, The Lathe of Heaven

Ursula K. Le Guin
“The end justifies the means. But what if there never is an end? All we have is means.”
Ursula K. Le Guin, The Lathe of Heaven
