My Favourite Quotations - kapple19/kapple19 GitHub Wiki

A common trait among people with autism is having intense interests. Things that we could rave and rant on about for hours.

And I like using this GitHub wiki as a lightning rod to protect my friends, family, and other online places from my propensity to rave and rant.

Previously I used Notion to scratch my itch of recording a collection of my favourite things, but it isn't an easily copy-pastable/linkable format for when I want to share a quote with someone.

I like the idea that quotes provide a lens into an individual's values and visions in life.

I really wish I could type all of this in Typst instead.

Confused on a Higher Level

"We have not succeeded in answering all our problems. The answers we have found only serve to raise a whole set of new questions. In some ways we feel we are as confused as ever, but we believe we are confused on a higher level and about more important things."

  • Earl C. Kelley, The Workshop Way of Learning

One Problem at a Time

"At some point everything is going to go south on you. Everything is going to go south and you’re going to say 'This is it. This is how I end.' Now you can either accept that or you can get to work. That’s all it is. You just begin. You do the math, you solve one problem. Then you solve the next one, and then the next and if you solve enough problems you get to come home."

  • Mark Watney, The Martian

Rearranged Time

"You didn’t lose any time. It just got rearranged."

  • Phillip, The Chosen

Turn Suffering into Notes

"Right now, Arima is trying to turn that suffering into notes. Exposing both his pain and his suffering, even his own struggling self. That's how he'll come to dwell inside his music. That's how we play music that's alive. Arima is in the middle of doing that. I'm sure."

Make Time for Friends

Important Unknowns

"I don’t understand how you can be one of the most important things that’s happened to me and yet I know almost nothing about you."

  • Evey Hammond, V for Vendetta

No Easier Way

"You said you wanted to live without fear. I wish there’d been an easier way, but there wasn’t."

  • V, V for Vendetta

Lots and Lots of Types of Days

Tim: "Do you wish we’d picked another, less wet day?" Mary: "No. No. Not for the world." Time: "Phew." Mary: "And so it begins. Lots and lots of types of days."

Connective Silence

"We didn’t say much to each other on the drive to Devonhurst, but I didn’t care. I just liked being with my dad. Somehow the silence seemed to connect us in a way that words never could."

  • Julianna Baker, Flipped

What Your Limits Are

“I just needed to know what your limits are. If you’re somebody who just takes orders like Sands, or if you’re somebody who has... character.”
