"The choices we’re working with here are a block universe, where past, present and future all coexist simultaneously and everything has already happened; chaos, where anything can happen and nothing can be predicted because we can’t know all the variables; and a Christian universe in which God made everything and it’s all here for a purpose but we have free will anyway."

"It’s dark now and I am very tired. I love you, always. Time is nothing."

"Love the world and yourself in it, move through it as though it offers no resistance, as though the world is your natural element."

"You can still be cool when you’re dead. In fact, it’s much easier, because you aren’t getting old and fat and losing your hair."
