"Rats in a test tube of water would quit paddling and drown in 15 minutes. Until the researchers tried pulling them out just before they drown, drying them off, giving them a rest and then setting them back in the tube. Horrendous, I know, but the rats paddled 240x longer on average than the ones that weren't given a break''.
"To never forget your own insignificance. To never get used to the unspeakable violence and the vulgar disparity of life around you. To seek joy in the saddest places...To never simplify what is complicated or complicate what is simple. To respect strength, never power. Above all, to watch. To try and understand. To never look away and never, never, to forget." ~ Arundhati Roy
