Quote by Scott Westerfeld (b. 1963)

• The human heart is a strange vessel. Love and hatred can exist side by side.

• Hard work's a good distraction.

• It's amazing how quickly nature consumes human places after we turn our backs on them. Life is a hungry thing.

• Everyone in the world was programmed by the place they were born, hemmed in by their beliefs, but you had to at least try to grow your own brain

• People only worry about the uncanny for about a week; that's the end of their attention span. After that, suspicions turn into shtick.

• I can't imagine anything worse than being required to have fun.
