The world was slipping down into Hell, and everyone was helping it on its way. Everyone accepted a little bit of money, and a little bit of blame, and that way they could all walk around with a conscience that was just a little bit off-color. Just a little bit, but add all those bits together ...

It is in the nature of those who have never been told "no" to think that the universe is there for their own benefit.

Humans are cowards; they leave their problems for their children to sort out.

You humans ... always looking for a sensei, always handing over responsibility for your actions to a higher power.

The best joke of all is to give someone just what they've wanted.

The unprepared will eventually be destroyed; ignorance is no hiding place.
