Frank Herbert
“The vision of time is broad, but when you pass through it, time becomes a narrow door.”
Frank Herbert, Dune

Alan Lightman
“Events, once happened, lose reality, alter with a glance, a storm, a night. In time, the past never happened. But who could know? Who could know that the past is not as solid as this instant…”
Alan Lightman, Einstein’s Dreams

David Foster Wallace
“The truth is that the heroism of your childhood entertainments was not true valor. It was theatre. The grand gesture, the moment of choice, the mortal danger, the external foe, the climactic battle whose outcome resolves all--all designed to appear heroic, to excite and gratify and audience. Gentlemen, welcome to the world of reality--there is no audience. No one to applaud, to admire. No one to see you. Do you understand? Here is the truth--actual heroism receives no ovation, entertains no one. No one queues up to see it. No one is interested.”
David Foster Wallace, The Pale King

Mikhail Sholokhov
“Побеждает только тот, кто твердо знает, за что он сражается, и верит в свое дело.”
Mikhail Sholokhov, Тихий Дон

Fyodor Dostoevsky
“Do you know I don't know how one can walk by a tree and not be happy at the sight of it? How can one talk to a man and not be happy in loving him! Oh, it's only that I'm not able to express it...And what beautiful things there are at every step, that even the most hopeless man must feel to be beautiful! Look at a child! Look at God's sunrise! Look at the grass, how it grows! Look at the eyes that gaze at you and love you!”
Fyodor Dostoyevsky, The Idiot
