“...it does not matter if we are forgotten; what matters is the effect we have on those around us and those who come after us. What matters is how our own lives affect the larger, perpetual community of the living.”

“I turn on my side and study the beam close to my head, next to the entrance. There are names scratched in the wood, some deep and some barely visible. Davis, I read. Rodríguez. Eames. One that could be Hicks, or maybe Ricks. Why do they carve their names, when only strangers will read them? A name is only a meaningless word with nothing to attach it to. Maybe it is enough just to be remembered, if only for your name; here is proof of life, faceless and voiceless but unmistakable. Immortality of a strange sort: a eulogy in wood.”

“I don’t care who you support what political party you support or what you believe in. Do your business and hustle however, you see it fits. But don’t gaslight those who are doing right and fighting for what is right. Don’t promote racism, apartheid, division, hate, crime, corruption, lies, and wrong things because you are benefiting. Tomorrow all of us including yourself will be dead, sick, or suffering because of your influence and actions, you were too hungry, selfish, greedy, and stupid to see the truth.”
