“The future will erase everything—there’s no level of fame or genius that allows you to transcend oblivion. The infinite future makes that kind of mattering impossible.” — John Green, An Abundance of Katherines
“That’s how you get deathless, volchitsa. Walk the same tale over and over, until you wear a groove in the world, until even if you vanished, the tale would keep turning, keep playing, like a phonograph, and you’d have to get up again, even with a bullet through your eye, to play your part and say your lines.” — Catherynne M. Valente, Deathless
“How’s anyone ever going to come up with a book or a painting or a symphony or a sculpture that can compete with a great city? You can’t because you, like, look around, every street, every boulevard is its own special art form.” — Woody Allen, Midnight in Paris
