Son yıllarda gördüklerimden sonra insan ırkından umudumu kestim. İnsan toplumu kendini iyileştirmekten aciz.

"We had given AM sentience. Inadvertently, of course, but sentience nonetheless. But it had been trapped. AM wasn't God, he was a machine. We had created him to think, but there was nothing it could do with that creativity. In rage, in frenzy, the machine had killed the human race, almost all of us, and still it was trapped. AM could not wander, AM could not wonder, AM could not belong. He could merely be. And so, with the innate loathing that all machines had always held for the weak, soft creatures who had built them, he had sought revenge. And in his paranoia, he had decided to reprieve five of us, for a personal, everlasting punishment that would never serve to diminish his hatred… that would merely keep him reminded, amused, proficient at hating man. Immortal, trapped, subject to any torment he could devise for us from the limitless miracles at his command. He would never let us go. We were his belly slaves. We were all he had to do with his forever time. We would be forever with him, with the cavern-filling bulk of the creature machine, with the all-mind soulless world he had become. He was Earth, and we were the fruit of that Earth; and though he had eaten us, he would never digest us. We could not die. We had tried it. We had attempted suicide, oh one or two of us had. But AM had stopped us. I suppose we had wanted to be stopped. Don't ask why. I never did. More than a million times a day. Perhaps once we might be able to sneak a death past him. Immortal, yes, but not indestructible."

Oh, Jesus sweet Jesus, if there ever was a Jesus and if there is a God, please please please let us out of here, or kill us. Because at that moment I think I realized completely, so that I was able to verbalize it: AM was intent on keeping us in his belly forever, twisting and torturing us forever. The machine hated us as no sentient creature had ever hated before. And we were helpless. It also became hideously clear: If there was a sweet Jesus and if there was a God, the God was AM."

"At first it meant Allied Mastercomputer, and then it meant Adaptive Manipulator, and later on it developed sentience and linked itself up and they called it an Aggressive Menace, but by then it was too late, and finally it called itself AM, emerging intelligence, and what it meant was I am... cogito ergo sum… I think, therefore I am."

Erkeğin gücü ile kadının uysallığı, aile kurumu, kadın ve erkek mesleklerinin farklılığı, bedensel güç çağının baskıcı zorunluluklarından başka bir şey değildir.
"Elde etmenin de vakti vardır, yitirmenin de. Elde tutmanın da vakti vardır, bırakmanın da; sevginin de vakti vardır, nefretin de; savaşın da vakti vardır, barışın da."

Gençken her şeye nüfuz eden bir hafiflik var hayatta. Henüz ezici seçimlerin hiçbiri yapılmadığından..
Hani, halüsinojen alıp kafana bir aygıt takarsın ve yüzde yüz gerçekçi bir simülasyon oyununa ışınlanarak macera yaşarsın ama bittiğinde aksiyonlu bir rüyadan uyanır gibi huzurlu dünyana dönersin ya, aynen öyle hissediyorum.
