Masters Quotes

acculated along the way.

We become each and every piece within the game called life!”
― Allan Rufus, The Master's Sacred Knowledge

Birth as one slice,

What you put in-between
the slices is up to you.

“Wake up! Don’t let them control you. Don’t let them impose an identity on you. Don’t obey them. Never submit to a prophet or a holy book. Think for yourself. Wear what you like. Eat what you like. Pray when you like. Don’t you want to be free rather than a slave? Create your own identity. Create yourself. Because only those who do can become God.

consequences of all his
shortcomings.

He accepted them.

He became a man
after God’s heart.

Not because he stopped
sinning - what we call sin
is an error in judgment.

God never punishes you
for your errors - you
create consequences for
your actions.

Error is what you call it
and not what it is.”
― Victor Vote

And I owe it all to a book I read.

Where I chanced to see the book in a window,
With its garish cover luring my eye?
And why did my soul respond to the book,
As I read it over and over?”
― Edgar Lee Masters, Spoon River Anthology

“The Swift pulled over right next to her Thar. The shining black of the Thar next to the fading red of the Swift. The cars knew each other very well. They seemed to greet each other and reminisce their many nights together, standing side by side. They also appeared to regret the long hiatus in the past year when they hadn’t seen each other, not even once. If only their thoughts could be conveyed to their masters. But they seemed to cherish the present moment. Nothing could change that. They were close to one another again. They had found one another again. Maybe this moment could reshape the future. The machines hoped so and at the core of their engines that created such hopeful thoughts was the intense love of their once seemingly inseparable masters.”
― Udayakumar D.S., FT Legacy 1: Who is Frank Twine?
