“In math, the backwards E, ∃, means there exists. ∈ means part of a set. A line through that ∉ means excluded from. Everyone ∃, but not everyone ∈. We all feel that, unless we ∈, we do not ∃.”
― Katrina Vandenberg, The Alphabet Not Unlike the World: Poems

“Dear brother from another time, today some stars gave in to the black around them & i knew it was you.”
― Danez Smith

“I am a brain, Watson. The rest of me is a mere appendix.”
― Arthur Conan Doyle, The Adventure of the Mazarin Stone

“Every thing must have a beginning, to speak in Sanchean phrase; and that beginning must be linked to something that went before.

Invention, it must be humbly admitted, does not consist in creating out of void, but out of chaos”
― Mary Shelley
