“Friedrich Nietzsche said “God is dead”. Call Jesus the only son of god and god dies, call Muhammad the last messenger of god and god dies. No god ain’t fucking dead yet. God doesn’t die until the last man walks on earth, god doesn’t die untill some primitive life swims on a puddle. And one day, even if life completely disappears from existence, god will find some other way. God knows how to beget sons and daughters. God knows how to animate his messages.”

“I've read fairy tales, of course, and listened to plaintive love songs, but I never understood why anyone would wake up after a hundred years and marry the prince who broke into their bedroom for a kiss. Or dance with a stranger once and decide to spend the rest of their lives together. I always felt a baffled kind of melancholy when others raptured over love at first sight, like maybe something was wrong with me, maybe I didn't know how to love someone at all. I didn't know it wasn't just me.”

“Faron's heart stopped entirely as she stared at him. Like friends, romance was a sacrifice she'd made to be the Childe Empyrean. It hadn't mattered much to her until now, because Faron had figured out long ago that she didn't feel attraction the way other people did. She had never looked at a random person and wanted them. She had never seen the beauty of others as anything other than an objective observation. She had never pictured herself kissing anyone the way she'd seen her sister kiss Cherry McKay. But she pictured it now.”
