"Renton: Im sorry I did this without permission. I thought that as long as Im on board this ship waiting to talk to Holland, Id try to make good use of myself. Hap: Come on, Renton.

Talho: We didnt create the Gekkostate in order to pretend were some sort of an extended family. You understand? Hap: Hey, Talho, theres no reason for you to put it that way. Talho: Why dont you just shut up, Hap! Renton: Yes, I know. I think the reason this ship exists is in order to go to war. Talho: By any chance do you happen to know why were at war? Renton: No I dont. Talho: So you can fight without knowing the reason why? Renton: I cant fight at all. And I cant fight at all, either. Talho: Really?

He tried to prove his assertions, but in the process of the investigation at the Great Wall. adverse effects on humans, believed to be from Scub Coral, expanded among the researchers and army associates. The army officials, hearing of this, decided to get rid of the Coralian, and Adroc, in the end, was against it. He was convinced, he was absolutely convinced, that the Coralian was an intelligent life form. That qas why he had searched for a way to co-exist. His conviction was cemented by the emergence of a human-shaped Coralian. The name of the humanoid Coralian...is Eureka. (everyone is more shocked)"

Mahatma Gandhi"we are engaged in a grim experiment never before attempted. We are subjecting whole populations to exposure to chemicals which animal experiments have proved to be extremely poisonous and in many cases cumulative in their effect. These exposures now begin at or before birth and-unless we change our methods-will continue through the lifetime of those now living. No one knows what the result will be, because we have no previous experience to guide us."

E. E. Cummings"I believe that the unity of man as opposed to other living things derives from the fact that man is the conscious life of himself.

Erich Fromm"“We need brains, is the bottom line,” Ivy said. “We’re not hunter-gatherers anymore. We’re all living like patients in the intensive care unit of a hospital. What keeps us alive isn’t bravery, or athleticism, or any of those other skills that were valuable in a caveman society. It’s our ability to master complex technological skills. It is our ability to be nerds. We need to breed nerds.”"
