When I get arrogant:
"Once upon a time, in some out of the way corner of that universe which is dispersed into numberless twinkling solar systems, there was a star upon which clever beasts invented knowing. That was the most arrogant and mendacious minute of "world history," but nevertheless, it was only a minute. After nature had drawn a few breaths, the star cooled and congealed, and the clever beasts had to die. One might invent such a fable, and yet he still would not have adequately illustrated how miserable, how shadowy and transient, how aimless and arbitrary the human intellect looks within nature. There were eternities during which it did not exist. And when it is all over with the human intellect, nothing will have happened." - Nietzsche
When I want to recover from reading Nietzsche:
"The very molecules that make up your body, the atoms that construct the molecules, are traceable.... to the crucibles... that were once the centers of high mass stars.... that exploded their chemically rich guts into the galaxy, enriching pristine gas clouds with the chemistry of life. So that we are all connected to each other, biologically.... to the earth, chemically.... and to the rest of the universe, atomically. ... We are part of the universe. We are in the universe and the universe is in us." - Neil deGrasse Tyson

“I don't think homosexuality is a choice. Society forces you to think it's a choice, but in fact, it's in one's nature. The choice is whether one expresses one's nature truthfully or spends the rest of one's life lying about it.”
Marlo Thomas
