“There’s a finite amount of time on this planet for each of us. Sometimes the only way we figure out how to deal with that reality—knowing that there will be an end to every story, and you don’t know how many chapters are left in your book—is by living in denial.”— Eddie Vedder, huffingtonpost.com
“There are no accidents in my philosophy. Every effect must have its cause. The past is the cause of the present, and the present will be the cause of the future. All these are links in the endless chain stretching from the finite to the infinite.”— Abraham Lincoln, rogerjnorton.com
“I realized up there that our planet is not infinite. It's fragile. That may not be obvious to a lot of folks, and it's tough that people are fighting each other here on Earth instead of trying to get together and live on this planet. We look pretty vulnerable in the darkness of space.”— Alan Shepard, en.wikiquote.org
