Dark Matter by Blake Crouch

 

 

 

 

 

 

“We're more than the sum total of our choices, that all the paths we might have taken factor somehow into the math of our identity.”

 

 

“It's terrifying when you consider that every thought we have, every choice we could possibly make, branches off into a new world.”

 

 

“No one tells you it's all about to change, to be taken away. There's no proximity alert, no indication that you're standing on the precipice. And maybe that's what makes tragedy so tragic. Not just what happens, but how it happens: a sucker punch that comes at you out of nowhere, when you're least expecting it. No time to flinch or brace.”

 

 

“We're all just wandering through the tundra of our existence, assigning value to worthlessness, when all that we love and hate, all we believe in and fight for and kill for and die for is as meaningless as images projected onto Plexiglass.”
