• Economics/economies have existed since before humanity, and exist outside of humanity
• Often times an offer matters more than an action, whether out of care or consent. Following through with an offer is even more important.
• The power of mortality is that gods can never truly understand it, for they can never experience it. To be mortal is to die, but to be a god is to live forever. Gods cannot die, because to die is to be mortal. There may be a divide between the divine and the physical that mortals cannot cross, but that divide goes both ways. Gods may know everything, but somehow mortality still escapes them.
• I build my own prisons just to see if I can escape from them. I’ve gotten really good at escaping, but I’ve gotten even better at building
• How do we come up with words for things that don’t exist?
• Making everyone a little better/happier is better than making yourself a lot better/happier
• The power of humanity is that no one person should have to take on too much of a burden
• Hell is interesting, because if it does exist, I believe that people go to it, or at least parts of people. God does not condemn us to hell, we condemn the aspects of our own being that hold us back and hurt us.
• Weakness and failure are just opportunities for growth
• Am I my body, or am I my beliefs?
• I need to support and cultivate the spirit of the hero. He’s the only one worth anything to be proud of
• Do you ever really think about how many mistakes we repeat? Why do we make our own lives so hard?
• Something that I’ve accepted but is still draining on my soul is that I’ll never be good enough
• Why would you trade infinity for finity?
• I feel like a Roman emperor who wanted to know what it felt like to be a commoner
• Love and hate are so powerful because they’re transformative. We start out as animals, but as we’re exposed to love and hate, we turn into something more, whether for better or worse
• I don’t think people realize how malleable reality really is
