A Quote from The Talos Principle 2
Byron about Melville
It's not right to make fun of Melville's comically absurd inability to take decent pictures.
She's a hyper-advanced humanoid machine, not a photographer.
More quotes from The Talos Principle 2
We live in a decaying system, which in turn produces ideologies of decay to justify its existence.
No matter what cultural signifiers they get packaged with, these ideologies come down to the same material result: a future in which for the average person there is less of everything. To paraphrase Mark Fisher, we find it easier to imagine the decline of civilization than to imagine a civilization worth living in.
The truth cannot be pursued or uncovered, it can only be found where it has already taken root.
You, sir, are a moron of the highest order.
Is it possible that on some level, people want to believe that everything's going to get worse? That it's comforting to think that humanity is bad and every solution will just go wrong? Because that way, you're never responsible. You never have to take on responsibility for anything outside yourself and never have to grow up.
Identity has no meaning without society, and society has no meaning without the individual.
