The Rare Earth Hypothesis means well, but it's colossally, spectacularly, gloriously wrong. Life isn't difficult, it isn't picky, it isn't unique, and fate doesn't enter into the thing. Kick-starting the gas-guzzling subcompact go-cart of organic sentience is as easy as shoving it down a hill and watching the whole thing spontaneously explode. Life wants to happen.
~ Catherynne M. Valente

I didn't hear words that were accurate, much less prideful. For example, I never once heard the word clitoris.

Isteže vieme, že na svete je dos? tvárí, ktoré príroda vytvorila bez dlhého uvažovania, nepoužila nijaké jemné nástroje, ako pilníky, dlátka, nebožiec, ale tesala iba nahrubo; zahnala sa sekerou a bol z toho nos, zahnala sa druhý, vznikli pery, ve?kým vrtákom vylúpla o?i, ni? neohob?ovala, a len vystr?ila na boží svet so slovami: Ži si!

They are talented villains, and each is unique. That one is Kegan the Celt. That is Este the Sweet, who might be the Roman he claims to be. There stands Travec the Dacian; there Galgus the Daut, and that misshapen wad of pure evil yonder is Izmael the Hun. They know two motivations only: fear and avarice.
~ Jack Vance
Though the steppe tribes of his time changed sides at the least provocation and soldiers might desert their leaders, none of Temujin's generals deserted him throughout his six decades as a warrior. In turn, Temujin never punished or harmed one of his generals. Among the great kings and conquerors of history, this record of fidelity is unique.
~ Jack Weatherford
We cannot separate the special importance of the visual apparatus of man from his unique ability to imagine, to make plans, and to do all the other things which are generally included in the catchall phrase free will. What we really mean by free will, of course, is the visualizing of alternatives and making a choice between them. In my view, which not everyone shares, the central problem of human consciousness depends on this ability to imagine.
~ Jacob Bronowski
