“Dengarlah anak muda, orang sebenarnya diberi kekuatan oleh Gusti Allah untuk menepis semua hasrat atau dorongan yang sudah diketahui akibat buruknya. Orang juga sudah diberi ati wening, kebeningan hati yang selalu mengajak eling. Ketika kamu melanggar suara kebeningan hatimu sendiri, kamu dibilang orang ora eling, lupa akan kesejatian yang selalu menganjurkan kebaikan bagi dirimu sendiri. Karena lupa akan kebaikan, kamu mendapat kebalikannya, keburukan.”

“Matthew lists Rahab as one of the ancestresses of the Lord Jesus Christ (Matthew 1:5), and that may be one reason why there was something about free-wheeling ladies with warm and generous hearts that he was never quite able to resist.”

“Friedrich Nietzsche, who famously gave us the ‘God is dead’ phrase was interested in the sources of morality. He warned that the emergence of something (whether an organ, a legal institution, or a religious ritual) is never to be confused with its acquired purpose: ‘Anything in existence, having somehow come about, is continually interpreted anew, requisitioned anew, transformed and redirected to a new purpose.’ This is a liberating thought, which teaches us to never hold the history of something against its possible applications. Even if computers started out as calculators, that doesn’t prevent us from playing games on them. (47) (quoting Nietzsche, the Genealogy of Morals)”

“My stove is old. My wallpaper is old. It's the same wallpaper from when I moved here and I never changed it. Why would I change it? I just keep it clean. If you take better care of things, you can hold onto them longer. That's how I still run things. If it works, I keep it. If it doesn't, I see if I can use it for something else. If I can't, and I usually can, I toss it.”
