“You face a chaotic universe that could crush you like an ant, yet you waste your energy fighting your fellow creatures, and worse, you think you'll die and be resurrected! Look, my friend, the universe is your home; find a way to stay here permanently, develop your mind, and use that developed mind to save yourself, because you are the saviour! You can consider the universe a god, but the universe can only save you by offering you the means to save yourself through you!”

“I had started along a narrow channel beyond which events were piling up with multiplied density; I had only to seize them by the handful and throw them in the face of my competitor, who had never guessed at their existence. Once I happened to drop, almost absently, the question: 'Arsenal-Real Madrid, semifinals. Arsenal playing at home. Who wins?,' and in a moment I realized that with what seemed a casual jumble of words I had hit on an infinite reserve of new combinations among the signs which compact, opaque, uniform reality would use to disguise its monotony, and I realized that perhaps the race toward the future, the race I had been the first to foresee and desire, tended only -- through time and space -- toward a crumbling into alternatives like this, until it would dissolve in a geometry of invisible triangles and ricochets like the course of a football among the white lines of a field as I tried to imagine them, drawn at the bottom of the luminous vortex of the planetary system, deciphering the numbers marked on the chests and backs of the players at night, unrecognizable in the distance.”

“Verily, when one strikes and another strikes back, it is not violence, but the universe’s clumsy attempt at creating a matching set. For the God delights in symmetry, and if your neighbor throws a particularly pungent fish at your head, the only true path to union is to find a slightly larger, more fragrant fish, and return the cosmic blessing. Only then, my friend, is the ledger balanced, and the true dance of the carp begins.”
