- “A lot of youngsters nowadays grow up being parented by devices. Parents try and fix all their children’s problems by giving them things. A lot of the older generations, the baby-boomers, grew up with very tight rules, very dictatorial parents, and they wanted to change that.

Quotations
- " ...The great room seems to shift with each step. The walls sway, as if buffeted by a stiff wind, rocking back and forth. Beneath my feet, the floor buckles. I trip, even though the floor isn't really buckling. Nor are the walls truly swaying. It's me who's doing the changing.

People live. People die. On and on it goes. Everything falls apart. Please don't think I'm a pessimist.
