Margaret Cavendish

…that much gold, and great store of riches makes them mad, insomuch as they endeavour to destroy each other…

If this book has made any point clear, I hope it’s that things don’t have to be real to be true. Or vice versa.

Truth must be found in reality, not systems.

Raoul Wallenberg

I encounter one example after another of how relative truth is.

Reality is what trips you up when you walk around with your eyes closed.

when you’re a kid, they tell you that it’s what’s on the inside that counts. Looks don’t matter . But that’s not true. Guys like Phoebus in The Hunchback, or Dorian, or the old Kyle Kingsbury– they can be scumbags to women and still get away with it because they’re good-looking. Being ugly is a kind of prisoner.
