{"quotes":[{"text":"In the artifacts that are conscious, memories of vanished lives still flicker. Tissues that were changed without dying hold the moment that a boy heard his sister was leaving home. They hold multiplication tables. They hold images of sexuality and violence and beauty.

Structures that were neurons twitch and loop and burn and dream. Images and words and pain and fear, endless.","author":"James S.A.
