Theories of Everything Quotes

“1. The main thing to know about the future is that it's only good for one thing: it keeps us being all anxious, which is probably exactly what we need to get stuff done. 2. The future doesn't have to look any particular way, but around here, if it doesn't, a lot of people will never speak to you again. 3. The future is a guess. Sometimes you guess right. Be careful with that, because pretty soon you'll be guessing all the time & acting like it's true & next thing you know you'll forget you do your best work in the present. —Things to Know About the Future”

“Things they don't tell you before you were born (because, most likely, there are quotas & they don't want a lot of people backing out at the last minute) 1. Everything good we're telling you you're going to forget & you'll only start to remember once you give up acting like you know what you're doing. This can take a long time. 2. You're going to end up with people who do crazy stuff, but who act like it's normal & you, who just wants to have fun being alive, have to go along with it so they'll feed you. After a few years like this, you'll start doing the same crazy stuff. (Obviously, we're still working out the kinks.) 3. There'll be so much cool stuff to play with it'll take you awhile to settle down. There's a good chance we'll lose you along the way to some of those things. It's OK. You just die & then we'll tell you everything all over again & we'll all keep our fingers crossed & hope it goes better the next time.”
