Really!

Nature is easily understood. Things eat other things when they can or are, in turn, eaten.

I’ve never believed in life. There is nothing of interest here. I don’t go for eye candy; you know, flowers, vistas, sunsets, and that kind of thing. And I’ve always seen most relationships as unstable, fabricated things -I’ll like you if you like me. They can quickly turn nasty over the least little thing. Life doesn’t disguise what it is—a blind machine where one generation of dying things produces the next generation of dying things. That most people buy into it so heavily is surprising.
