"Men pass in front of our eyes like butterflies, creatures of a brief season. We love them; they are brave, proud, beautiful, clever; and they die almost at once. They die so soon that our hearts are continually racked with pain"
- Philip Pullman

This quote talks with the fleeting nature of life. Guy come into our lives like butterflies, with their beauty as well as grace, and afterwards they are gone almost as swiftly. We love them for their guts, satisfaction, elegance, as well as intelligence, yet we are left with a deep feeling of loss when they die. The discomfort of their absence is a consistent pointer of exactly how brief life can be, and exactly how essential it is to treasure the moment we have with those we love. This quote serves as a tip to appreciate the moments we have with those we appreciate, and also to make the most of the time we have with each other.
"Computers are magnificent tools for the realization of our dreams, but no machine can replace the human spark of spirit, compassion, love, and understanding"
