“Say something, anything, to remind me why I shoudn't hurt to be with to you so much it makes it hard for me to breath.”

“- Odkąd ustalono, że pecunia non olet, coraz więcej ludzi nie śmierdzi groszem. - Empatia zeszła na psy, z ludzi.
- Tym, którzy skwapliwie realizują postulat carpe diem zwykle trudno jest zdążyć przed północą.
- Some argue that (possibly due to evolution) animals became more human and humans more animal.
- We do not want to be a minority; we want to be a privileged minority.”

“You might get an A in your maths. But life is blo­ody dif­fe­rent. You can’t expect life to be an A all the time.”

“But, just because we loved each other, doesn't mean we were meant to be together. And just because you loved one, doesn't mean you can't love another. ”

“So, let us be alert - alert in a twofold sense:
Since Auschwitz we know what man is capable of.
And since Hiroshima we know what is at stake.”

““Claude Shannon, the father of information theory, once declared, “I visualize a time when we will be to robots what dogs are to humans, and I’m rooting for the machines.””

“Niebezpieczeństwo nie tkwi w samej wojnie. Tkwi w postawie, która umożliwia wojnę. Aby walczyć, musimy wierzyć, że my jesteśmy cacy, a oni są be. Biel przeciwko czerni, dobro przeciwko złu. Dryftery nie mają z ty nic wspólnego. One są tylko pretekstem.”

“It's a wonderful day to forget aabout dating and start healing the part of yourself that led you to believe you needed external approval to be valid in the first place.”

“In a blinding flash it showed me that I, too, was a living being of flesh and blood, another animal, who had my time on earth now, but who one day would cease to be here.”

“The shows aren’t making people gay. They’re just making people realize it’s even . . . I don’t know, a possibility. It’s like we’re all brainwashed from the time we’re babies to think that we have to be straight. ”

“I’m not flaunting anything. I’m just existing. This is me. I can’t hide myself. I can’t disappear. And even if I could, I don’t fucking want to. I have the same right to be here. I have the same right to exist.”

“Lesson learned? When people say, ‘You really, really must’ do something, it means you don’t really have to. No one ever says, ‘You really, really must deliver the baby during labor.’ When it’s true, it doesn’t need to be said.”

“Obaj męż­czyź­ni do­tar­li do miej­sca okre­śla­nego jako Skrzy­żo­wa­nie Śmier­ci, w któ­rym prze­ci­nają się dwie drogi życia. Jedno życie
zo­sta­je prze­rwane, a dru­gie
nie­od­wra­cal­nie zmie­nia się na
za­wsze. Nazy­wamy to zrzą­dze­niem losu.”

“Społeczeństwo jest w stanie wierzyć, że może identyfikować złych, szkodliwych ludzi, ale to niemożliwe. My seryjni mordercy jesteśmy waszymi synami, mężami [...] jesteśmy wszędzie. Jutro zginą kolejne dzieci. A z resztą - czy śmierć jednej osoby ma jakieś znaczenie?”

“Pozostawiam Czytelnikom decyzję czy uznać Billa Heirensa za winnego czy niewinnego; moim zdaniem nie ma absolutnie żadnych dowodów łączących go z którymkolwiek z trzech opisanych zabójstw. Mógł być złodziejem... ale mordercą? Z pewnością nie.”

“Ty, dobry Boże, zsyłasz na nas wszystkie dobra za cenę naszej pracy”

“Jeśli ktoś łamie prawo, musi ponieść karę. ”

“The problem with the so-called bloody surveillance state is that it’s hard work trying to track someone’s movements using CCTV – especially if they’re on foot. Part of the problem is that the cameras all belong to different people for different reasons. Westminster Council has a network for traffic violations, the Oxford Street Trading Association has a huge network aimed at shop-lifters and pickpockets, individual shops have their own systems, as do pubs, clubs and buses. When you walk around London it is important to remember that Big Brother may be watching you, or he could be having a piss, or reading the paper or helping redirect traffic around a car accident or maybe he’s just forgotten to turn the bloody thing on.”

“However, recent times, unfortunate, there has been a growing degeneration of the judiciary power, which finds its expression in a specific interpretation of the basic principles of this power (…) The degenerate form of these principles takes the form of three supposed principles: exclusivity, omnipotence, and voluntarism, which seem to be followed by some judges and legal theorists:”

“"Child, to say the very thing you really mean, the whole of it, nothing more or less or other than what you really mean; that's the whole art and joy of words." A glib saying. When the time comes to you at which you will be forced at last to utter the speech which has lain at the center of your soul for years, which you have, all that time, idiot-like, been saying over and over, you'll not talk about joy of words. I saw well why the gods do not speak to us openly, nor let us answer. Till that word can be dug out of us, why should they hear the babble that we think we mean? How can they meet us face to face till we have faces?”

“„Dotarli do domu, gdzie Krzysiek zajął się przyrządzaniem kolacji a Artur wreszcie mógł przeczytać korespondencję, której całkiem sporo się uzbierało. Po chwili wszedł do kuchni i wręczył przyjacielowi list. - Do ciebie – powiedział zaskoczony. - Jak to do mnie? To skąd się wzięło w twojej skrzynce? Pokaż – odparł Krzysiek biorąc kopertę od kumpla i dokładnie ją oglądając. – No faktycznie do mnie. Hmm.Dziwne – skwitował po przeczytaniu – spójrz ładny wierszyk. Artur wziął od kolegi kartkę i zabrał talerz z kanapkami do pokoju. Krzysiek postawił czajnik z wodą na gazie i dołączył do kumpla. Z pełnymi ustami Artur czytał list, wzruszył ramionami i sięgnął po kolejną kanapkę. Z treści listu wynikało jedynie, że autorką mogła być kobieta. Treść wyglądała następująco: Love! What the hell is this? Only pain and tears Only shadow on the heart. How can I be smart? When I’m fall in love? Love How many names it has? Can it mean only sex? Can it scare of its power? Can it lie? Can it be too shy? Like our Love! My heart made suicide Coz my conscience didn’t let it live. Love killed my soul Love killed my brain I feel only pain So what the hell is this? Can you show me Different meaning of love?”

“'In Australia one has to consider whose and what aspects of cultures are reproduced. While recognising goals and functions for Indigenous Literature depicted by Indigenous authors, it is important to remember their comments on the mainstream literary critique and notice the above mentioned Indigenous Literature’s unsteady position within Literary History and Institutions. Not represented up to its miscellaneous aptitudes, Aboriginal literature (within literary discourses and social forms of organisation) engages with various systems of signs in the production of texts. These very texts replicate the meanings of a culture, which must be seen as ever changing. Assuming exclusiveness, and inclusiveness of Indigenous Literature, this article’s intention has been to dismantle the perspective of theoretical nativism in the case of Australian Indigenous Literature.'

“At the subatomic level, reality is the collection of all possible quantum objects (Objects in an axiomatic sense), for example, an electron exists genuinely before measurement. Objects are devoid of experimental content, belonging to the 'hidden' (implicit) reality, about which one can only say that it exists (ontic truth – Def. 7.2.) and serves as a substrate (ex nihilo nihil fit) for S-objects (e.g., an electron after measurement), appearing as the effect of measurement performed by an observer (ontic truth). S-construct is essentially a model of S-object (e.g., characteristics of an electron after measurement), providing a more or less experimentally verified characterization of the electron as such (correspondence truth – Def. 7.2.). In the case of RAES, the electron is an abstract-essential entity that exists independently of the knowing subject and physical reality but can be reconstructed by the knowing subject (if it exists at all) in an infinite series of approximations (asymptotic truth – Def. 7.2.)”

“(...) I share almost ninety-nine per cent of my genes with a chimpanzee - and our longevity is virtually the same - but I don't think you have an inkling of how much more I comprehend, and yet I know I must tear myself away from it. For example, I have a good grasp of just how infinitely great outer space is and how it's divided into galaxies and clusters of galaxies, spirals and lone stars, and that there are healthy stars and febrile red giants, white dwarfs and neutron stars, planets ans asteroids. I know everything about the sun and moon, about the evolution of life on earth, about the Pharaohs and the Chinese dynasties, the countries of the world and their peoples as presently constituted, not to mention all the studying I've done on plants and animals, canals and lakes, rivers and mountain passes. Without even a pause for thought I can tell you the names of several hundred cities, I can tell you the names of nearly all the countries in the world, and I know the approximate populations of every one. I have a knowledge of the historical background of the different cultures, their religion and mythology, and to a certain extent also the history of their languages, in particular etymological relationships, especially within the Indo-European family of languages, but I can certainly reel off a goodly number of expressions from the Semitic language too, and the same from Chinese and Japanese, not to mention all the topographical and personal names I know. In addition, I'm acquainted with several hundred individuals personally, and just from my own small country I could, at the drop of a hat, supply you with several thousand names of loving fellow countrymen whom I know something about - fairly extensive biographical knowledge in some cases. And I needn't confine myself to Norwegians, we're living more and more in a global village, and soon the village square will cover the entire galaxy. On another level, there are all the people I'm genuinely fond of, although it isn't just people one gets attached to, but places as well: just think of the all the places I know like the back of my hand, and where I can tell if someone's gone chopped down a bush or moved a stone. Then there are books, especially all those that have taught me so much about the biosphere and outer space, but also literary works, and through them all the imaginary people whose lives I've come to know and who, at times, have meant a great deal to me. And then I couldn't live without music, and I'm very eclectic, everything from folk music and Renaissance music to Schonberg and Penderecki, but I have to admit, and this has a bearing on the very perspective we're trying to gain, I have to admit to having a particular penchant for romantic music, and this, don't forget, can also be found amongst the works of Bach and Gluck, not to mention Albinoni. But romantic music has existed in every age, and even Plato warned against it because he believed that melancholy could actually weaken the state, and it's patently clear when you get to Puccini and Mahler that music has become a direct expression of what I'm trying to get you to comprehend, that life is too short and that the way human beings are fashioned means they must take leave of far too much. If you've heard Mahler's Abschied from Das Lied von the Erde you'll know what I mean. Hopefully you'll have understood that it's the farewell itself I'm referring to, the actual leave- taking, and that this takes place in the self-same organ where everything I'm saying goodbye to is stored.”
