| The people who don’t like what they’ve got are the same people who invent things, and make discoveries, and advance civilization.

Ordinary people are probably better off living their ordinary little lives in an ordinary manner. | Kyon |

And yet the chaos is all so beautiful. | Dante |

Because they are afraid, they attack the thing that is causing the fear. Unfortunately, that means they attack the victim and not the perpetrator. | u/mnh5 |
