I always loved that quote beetnemesis Send a noteboard - 08/01/2011 09:04:07 PM
"If nothing we do matters, then all that matters is what we do."



If there's no eternal reward or punishment, if there's nothing to stop the eventual heat death of the universe, if all we are is some bugs crawling over a rock hurtling through the emptiness of space... then all there is is how you use what little time you have, and what choices you make.
I amuse myself.

What do you particularly enjoy about Pyramids? DrJacJacMcScrumptious - 08/01/2011 05:44:31 PM 1243 Views
Re: It is self contained, it examines its themes and then moves on, it is packaged to my tastes. Danae al'Thor - 08/01/2011 07:45:23 PM 1275 Views
Plus, it has that great assassin test scene at the beginning. beetnemesis - 08/01/2011 08:51:15 PM 1137 Views

Humorous. But his underlying nihilism always leaves me somewhat disturbed after finishing a book.. Shannow - 08/01/2011 09:21:56 AM 1287 Views
Interesting DrJacJacMcScrumptious - 08/01/2011 12:18:56 PM 1284 Views
To me atheism = nihilism... Shannow - 08/01/2011 12:47:04 PM 1234 Views
Ok, I fundamentally disagree with you, but I respect your opinion DrJacJacMcScrumptious - 08/01/2011 12:49:54 PM 1177 Views
Fair enough. However... Shannow - 08/01/2011 12:54:24 PM 1201 Views
