He was dreadfully wild. He didn't even begin to be tame till he met the Woman, and she told him that she did not like living in his wild ways. She picked out a nice dry Cave, instead of a heap of wet leaves, to lie down in; and she strewed clean sand on the floor; and she lit a nice fire of wood at the back of the Cave; and she hung a dried wild-horse skin, tail down, across the opening of the Cave; and she said, 'Wipe your feet, dear, when you come in, and now we'll keep house.","author":"Rudyard Kipling","tags":["by","cat","cave","himself","man","tame","walked","wild","woman"],"id":29548,"author_id":"Rudyard+Kipling"},{"text":"That's the thing about rocks--they don't break easily.

For a while, she settled into a pattern of thirty hours awake and twenty hours asleep. She described herself as being 'psychologically completely out of phase, where I no longer know what my values are or what is my purpose in life.'When she returned to society, her husband later noted, she seemed to have an emptiness inside her that she was unable to fully express. 'While I was alone in my cave I was my own judge,' she said. 'You are your own most severe judge. You must never lie or all is lost. The strongest sentiment I brought out of the cave is that in my life I will never tolerate lying.' A little more than a year later, Le Guen swallowed an overdose of barbiturates and lay down in her car in Paris, a suicide at age thirty-three.","author":"Michael Finkel","tags":["alone","asleep","awake","barbiturates","cave","cave-explorer","clock","emptiness","experiment","explorer","express","extreme","human-body","judge","lie","live","lying","monitored","overdose","pattern","phase","purpose","return","rhythms","science","scientists","settled","society","solitude","study","suicide","tolerate","underground","values","volunteered"],"id":83221,"author_id":"Michael+Finkel"},{"text":"If you feel like you don't fit into the world you inherited it is because you were born to help create a new one.","author":"Ross Caligiuri","tags":["7","agency","ailee","anne","ara","arrant","blear","bray","bretta","brielle","cady","caligiuri","cave","consciousness","constance","creel","dalt","davina","defected","deryn","dr","dream","dreaming","dreams","edmonds","evelyn","fallow","grace","grane","jack","jejung","kieran","lace","layla","lily","lucas","machine","malaphin","memories","mentality","metaphysical","mind","nora","obsidia","otto","outsiders","phoenix","program","rebellion","rebels","rising","romance","ross","science-fiction","secora","seven","shades","shadows","sirt","sonant","stellan","subconscious","sun","thoughts","time","traxton","trim","tusk","vera","visionary","will","willow"],"id":86590,"author_id":"Ross+Caligiuri"},{"text":"How in hell did those bombers get up there every single second of our lives! Why doesn't someone want to talk about it! We've started and won two atomic wars since 2022! Is it because we're having so much fun at home we've forgotten the world? Is it because we're so rich and the rest of the world's so poor and we just don't care if they are? I've heard rumors; the world is starving, but we're well fed. Is it true, the world works hard and we play? Is that why we're hated so much? I've heard the rumors about hate too, once in a long while, over the years. Do you know why? I don't, that's sure!

Most of the information she gathered was considered an old fairy tale by the general public. There were a few stories here and there about people angered by their present living conditions, who had demanded that the center of Constance be held responsible for it. However, information was never passed between the five different sectors. Over the years the tales of the rebellion had become children’s bedtime stories, and people did not take them seriously.","author":"Ross Caligiuri","tags":["7","agency","ailee","anne","ara","arrant","blear","bray","bretta","brielle","cady","caligiuri","cave","consciousness","constance","creel","dalt","davina","defected","deryn","dr","dream","dreaming","dreams","edmonds","evelyn","fallow","grace","grane","jack","jejung","kieran","lace","layla","lily","lucas","machine","malaphin","memories","mentality","metaphysical","mind","nora","obsidia","otto","outsiders","phoenix","program","rebellion","rebels","rising","romance","ross","science-fiction","secora","seven","shades","shadows","sirt","sonant","stellan","subconscious","sun","thoughts","time","traxton","trim","tusk","vera","visionary","will","willow"],"id":115423,"author_id":"Ross+Caligiuri"}],"pagination":{"page":1,"page_size":10,"total":29,"pages":3,"next":"?page=2\u0026page_size=10"}}
