“Everything in life is just for a while.”

“What was on the other side?"
Donna said, "He said there was another world on the other side. He could see it."
"He... never went through it?"
"That’s why he kicked the shit out of everything in his apartment; he never thought of going through it, he just admired the doorway and then later he couldn’t see it at all and it was too late. It opened for him a few days and then it was closed and gone forever.”
― Philip K. Dick, A Scanner Darkly

“Beauty is, in some way, boring. Even if its concept changes through the ages… a beautiful object must always follow certain rules. A beautiful nose shouldn’t be longer than that or shorter than that, on the contrary, an ugly nose can be as long as the one of Pinocchio, or as big as the trunk of an elephant, or like the beak of an eagle, and so ugliness is unpredictable, and offers an infinite range of possibility. Beauty is finite, ugliness is infinite like God.”
― Umberto Eco, On Ugliness

“The advanced societies of the future will not be governed by reason. They will be driven by irrationality, by competing systems of psychopathology.”
― J.G. Ballard, J.G. Ballard: Quotes: Does the Future Have a Future?
