Rather, it's just a state of affairs you keep observing. Whichever way our consciousness works, the cosmos must by necessity contain everything needed for it to exist.

We note that there exists a limitation we might call qualia or simply put - private experience. This limitation appears to prevent us from knowing what, if anything, it feels like to be someone or something else.

This resembles a phenomenon of complementarity in quantum mechanics which in its simplest form is a limitation on the information any single observer can possess about certain pairs of observables such as position and momentum. We may remain agnostic about whether these variables even have a simultaneous fundamental existence, and instead simply note that even if they do, the nature of our existence prevents us from ever gaining such knowledge.

If there in fact is nothing more to existence than existence itself then there can be no reason for it. Asking for such a reason isn't even coherent, reasons are only correlations in "the set of all existence". In the spirit of Gödel's incompleteness theorems, it remains forever impossible to prove such to be the case, but it may never the less be true.

Often times when I sleep, I forget that there are painful and sometimes nearly impossible things I must eventually overcome or suffer what is to come. For a moment there I feel fine, but even in my sleep, I know that when I wake up, I will forever remember what's ahead. This is the state of my being, my every waking moment short of a few most intense minutes of the year. Every time I awaken from my amnesia, the memories hit me hard. It never goes away, and almost nothing affects it.

As time is running out, my faith in a future where I'm free from that fire is slowly fading away. Time itself has shown me, things I derive value from don't appear to be going my way. This is cause my true goals have always had poor prospects within my expected lifetime, but also because I've always had extremely hard time finding comparable value in anything else. The universe may hold unimaginable wonders, but that doesn't mean I wouldn't be stuck right where I am - until the end of my days. Yet I go on.

Perhaps there are infinite ways to be, infinite number of things to learn, and experience. Many of them extremely rare and unlikely, most unpleasant. At some point it might be best to just stay put for a while, enjoy the little things and not look for more, at least for a while, until our place in the universe has shifted once more. There will always be time for more wonders.

No idea why I'm on this planet with these people. Apparently don't really need to know even if that's a strong preference. It would be nice to have a good time, or perhaps simply better. Oh well, maybe such is just not the order of my things. Let the eternity come, I'm ready, always been, always will be.

It's better to waste money, than it is to waste time. You can always get more money.

Some people see things that are and ask, Why? Some people dream of things that never were and ask, Why not? Some people have to go to work and don't have time for all that.

If you're constantly moving, you can get in a monotony that's just as equally boring as sitting still for a long period of time.

Nothing in life is to be feared, it is only to be understood.

Whenever you find yourself on the side of the majority, it is time to pause and reflect.

Määritelmät eivät ole oikein tai väärin, ne vain ovat. Mielipiteistä ei voi kiistellä, faktoista ei voi kiistellä, päämääristä voidaan neuvotella.

If you're harmless, I have no problem with you, even if I don't like what you're doing, but are you really harmless?

Your favourite friend is the one you can watch 9 consecutive episodes of Dexter with, without exchanging a single word. The foundation of your friendship is built on a mutual dislike of other people. Everyone else can only be tolerated on a bi-monthly basis for no longer than two consecutive hours at a time.

Pitäisiköhän joskus kasvaa aikuiseksi? Ei vaan erityisemmin ole koskaan huvittanut. Toisaalta... miksi vaivautua. Ei kai siitä mitään iloa ole, päinvastoin.

-He who jumps into the void owes no explanation to those who stand and watch.

-I mistrust all systematizers and avoid them. The will to a system is a lack of integrity.

...then I will have to mistrust many a friend, but at least I won't have to mistrust myself.

-Having just enough life to enjoy being dead.

...you wish.

-In the quantum multiverse, every choice, every decision you've ever and never made exists in an unimaginably vast ensemble of parallel universes.

...or does it?

-This is the world, he thought. And I am in it.

...yeah, could be worse, maybe.

-New mysteries. New day. Fresh doughnuts.

-Existence is tedious, anyway.

...yes it is, no problem.

Either I will find a way, or I will make one.

Motivation will almost always beat mere talent.

You just can't beat the person who never gives up.

The most effective way to do it, is to do it.

Wherever you go becomes a part of you somehow.

The real voyage of discovery consists not in seeking new landscapes, but in having new eyes.

I travel not to go anywhere, but to go. I travel for travel's sake. The great affair is to move.

I have found out that there ain't no surer way to find out whether you like people or hate them than to travel with them.
