Quotes
-
Vox : Can you even imagine what it's like to remember everything? I remember this six-year-old girl who asked me about dinosaurs 800,000 years ago. I remember the last book I recommended: Look Homeward, Angel by Thomas Wolfe. And yes, I even remember you. "Time travel, practical application."
-
Alexander Hartdegen : My question is why can't one change the past?
Vox : Because one cannot travel into the past.
-
Alexander Hartdegen : Can you tell me what's happening here?
Vox : Well, my sources are no longer fully annotated and my information is somewhat anecdotal but, I believe what was once one race, is now two. One above. And one below. Two distinct species that have evolved.
Alexander Hartdegen : And how do those below survive?
Vox : That is the real question, isn't it?
Alexander Hartdegen : I don't believe it.
Vox : Well, if you don't like the answers, you should avoid asking the questions. Look at them. They have no knowledge of the past. No ambition for the future. So lucky.
Alexander Hartdegen : Why would you say something like that?
Vox : Can you even imagine what it's like to remember everything? I remember the six year old girl who asked me about dinosaurs eight hundred thousand years ago. I remember the last book I recommended. "Look Homeward, Angel" by Thomas Wolfe. And yes, I even remember you. Time Travel... practical application.

Vox : Live long and prosper.
