Watchmen
1. At midnight, all the agents and superhuman crew go out and round up everyone who knows more than they do. -Bob Dylan
2. And I'm up while the dawn is breaking, even though my heart is aching. I should be drinking a toast to absent friends instead of these comedians. -Elvis Costello
3. The release of atom power has changed everything except our way of thinking...The solution to this problem lies in the heart of mankind. If only I had known, I should have become a watchmaker. -Albert Einstein
4. Tyger, Tyger burning bright, In the forests of the  night, What immortal hand or eye Could frame thy fearful symmetry?-William Blake
5. Battle not with monsters, lest ye become a monster, and if you gaze into the abyss, the abyss gazes also into you -Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche

The Almost Moon

- The moon is whole all the time, but we can't always see it. What we see is an almost moon or a not -quite moon. The rest is hiding just out of view, but there's only one moon, so we follow it in the sky. We plan our lives based on its rhythms and tides.
-Just as we were stuck with the moon, so too we were stuck with my mother. Wherever I'd travel, there she'd be.
-The idea that my mother was eternal like the moon. ... Dead or alive, a mother or the lack of a mother shaped one’s whole life.
