I’m reading Ender’s Game, and 6,058 people have highlighted this passage.
“the power to cause pain is the only power that matters, the power to kill and destroy, because if you can’t kill then you are always subject to those who can, and nothing and no one will ever save you.”
And now maybe I’m the 6,059th, because I just added a note that I disagree with it, and it seems to count as a highlight.
Technology is not giving us a clear picture here. It’s actually warping our view.
