“We know that the world we’re living in is falling apart. We know that the digital age we were born into isn’t working. And so we long. We’re nostalgic for eras that we truly know nothing about because we’re convinced that somewhere, left behind in the ’80s and ’90s, is the thing we’re missing.” - TGC

“The most interesting thing about Johnson isn’t that he previously used injections of his son’s blood in an attempt to stay young.

“The overall message of Ecclesiastes is not that life is absurd, or that it is temporary, but that humans must live with many questions that they cannot answer.” - Word by Word
“On the other hand, a different doom and gloom, the kind reflected in the X post above, still resonates with many. In fact, it sounds a bit like a work of poetry written almost 3,000 years ago by a man of wealth and power who learned that ‘having it all’ isn’t all it is cracked up to be.” - Breakpoint
