“Caves of blue.
Strike the hue.
Westward, burning.
Pages turning.
Indiana.
Ripe banana.
Happiness approaches.
Serpents and roaches.
There once was a god named Apollo
Who plunged in a cave blue and hollow
Upon a three-seater
The bronze fire-eater
Was forced death and madness to swallow”
― The Hidden Oracle

“We shouldn't be doing this." Dan broke the silence, his voice low. "We would both get in trouble." He stood up. "Let's go back."
"We shouldn't be doing what?" I scrambled to my feet. "What exactly are we doing?"
"This."
"You mean consorting?"
"Sure, consorting. Cavorting. Carousing." He paused to take a deep breath.
"Kissing." Then he leaned in and pressed his mouth to mine.”

“It is always as it was between Achilles and Homer: one person has the experience, the sensation, the other describes it. A real writer only gives words to the affects and experiences of others; he is an artist in divining a great deal from the little that he has felt. Artist are by no means people of great passion, but they frequently present themselves as such, unconsciously sensing that others give greater credence to the passions they portray if the artist's own life testifies to his experience in this area. We need only let ourselves go, not control ourselves, give free play to our wrath or our desire, and the whole world immediately cries: how passionate he is! But there really is something significant in a deeply gnawing passion that consumes and often swallows up an individual: whoever experiences this surely does not describe it in dramas, music, or novels. Artists are frequently unbridled individuals, insofar, that is, as they are not artists: but that is something different.”

“...He was irritable with Orr, who had found two crab apples somewhere and walked with them in his cheeks until Yossarian spied them there and made him take them out. Then Orr found two horse chestnuts somewhere and slipped those in until Yossarian detected them and snapped at him again to take the crab apples out of his mouth. Orr grinned and replied that they were not crab apples but horse chestnuts and that they were not in his mouth but in his hands, but Yossarian was not able to understand a single word he said because of the horse chestnuts in his mouth and made him take them out anyway.”

“There is no record in Scripture that an angel visited John’s cell to explain the meaning of his persecution. This great, godly man who was the designated forerunner to Jesus went through the same confusing experiences as we. It is comforting to know that John responded in a very human way. He sent a secret message to Jesus from his prison cell, asking “Are you the one who was to come, or should we expect someone else?” (Matthew 11:3). Have you ever felt like asking that question?”

“You’d have a list of notes of things that the player did and they’d want you to do it that way in practice. So they’d say, ‘He’s a guy who bites really hard on play action, so every time you see this play, do it that way. You want to give the quarterback a good look. You’re not reading it as you, you’re reading it as them. Play how they play and not how you play.’ Now, you’ve got to learn all your stuff, too, because you want to be on the team. So you’re watching film of you being him and you being you.”

“Mutsuko: "I prepared a new sign!”
Yuichi: "Forget about the signs! We don’t need another one!”
Mutsuko: "I thought someone might get the wrong idea.”
Yuichi: “...Yeah, we’ve seen plenty of someone here getting the wrong idea, haven’t we?”
Mutsuko: "Also, it felt kind of like lying. So I wrote this!”
With that, Mutsuko tore off the bug bomb sign and stuck up a new one.
Demon Castle Goddamn.
Yuichi: "That makes no sense! This is the survival club, right? So that’s a lie, too!”
Mutsuko: "Really? I think anyone would be hesitant to come in if they thought Lord Greed might be hanging around. And I refer to this room as Demon Castle Goddamn, so it’s not a lie!”
Yuichi: “How many people will even get the reference?!”
Mutsuko: "...Good point. How about this for a compromise, then?” Mutsuko took out her felt-tipped pen and wrote directly on the sign to fix it. It now read:
Demon Castle Goddaclub.
Yuichi: "What kind of club is that supposed to be?!”

“Imagine that butterfly can only see in two dimensions. Its world is flat. If we asked it to describe the glass, it could only see that 2D shadow and tell us 2D things about it. But we humans, one dimension up, understand the glass's shape and depth. Our world is 3D. But what if we're like the butterfly, and we're trapped in what we can perceive? What if our world is just the light and shadow of some higher dimension's design?”

“Think of it like standing in a room with mirrors on every wall. Each mirror reflects the other, and you, and every reflection of every mirror reflects the reflection of you. You’re in one of those reflections now, and I’m standing in the room, except all my walls are covered by curtains.”
