Ina Gebert, M.A.: The living always feel superior to the dead. Consider that death is the ultimate degradation - as well as the opportunity for a community to safely voice its true feelings about the individual.

Shot Dunyun: Again, do not confuse Stoking with Resolving Origin. Stoking means you flashback to breed a better you. Resolving Origin means you slaughter some ancestor to make sure you'll never be born. I'll grant you, they're both pretty nasty.

From the Field Notes of Green Taylor Simms: One theory of time travel resolves the Grandfather Paradox by speculating that, at the moment one changes history, that change splinters the single flow of reality inot parallel branches. For example, after you've killed your ancestor, reality would fork into two parallel paths: one reality in which you continued to be born and your ancestor did not die, and one branch in which your ancestor died and you would never be conceived. Each revision one made in the past, the subsequent new reality it created, theorists refer to as a "bifurcation."

From the Field Notes of Green Taylor Simms: Not to be overly moralistic, but sometimes the death of one person can justify the death of an entire culture.

Shot Dunyun: It coud've been earthquake that got Rant Casey. Or a fire. Or a bullshit strain of some killer flu. It's comforting to know, after all the Party Crash accidents I've survived, that, the day I finally meet Death, the two of us will be old, long-lost friends. Me and Death, seperated at birth.

From the Field Notes of Green Taylor Simms (☾Historian): Every family has its scriptures, but most can't articulate them. These are stories people repeat to reinforce their identity: Who they are. Where they came from. Why they behave as they do. Rant used to say, "Every family is a regular little cult."

While they like to talk everything through, to analyze and hypothesize, what I really need, what I'm really looking for, is not something I can articulate. It's nonverbal: I need love. I need the thing that happens when your brain shuts off and your heart turns on.
