• Paranoia is a survival trait when you run in my circles. It gives you something to do in your spare time, coming up with solutions to ridiculous problems that aren't ever going to happen. Except when one of them does, at which point you feel way too vindicated. - Harry Dresden, Changes, Jim Butcher

• When homo sapiens is changing, it will not be by the whole race gaining simultaneously whatever qualities better fit it for survival, but rather by certain types of mankind proving superior to the rest in survival value, so that they contribute a larger proportion to the later generations, and in so doing drag the average qualities of humanity in the same direction.

  Charles Galton Darwin

• There is a built-in mechanism by which we respond fairly strongly and fairly negatively to somebody who is being negative or to somebody who is simply disagreeing with us, in which case it's a very unhappy position for our brain to be in. Our brain does not want us to be wrong. Because that has very dire consequences in terms of our overall survival.

• Soy pesimista sobre la raza humana porque es demasiado ingeniosa para su propio bien. Nuestro enfoque de la naturaleza consiste en someterla a golpes. Tendríamos más posibilidades de sobrevivir si nos acomodáramos a este planeta y lo contempláramos con aprecio en vez de con escepticismo y dictadura.

• Afrontémoslo: Estoy asustado, asustado y congelado. En primer lugar, supongo, tengo miedo por mí mismo... el viejo impulso primitivo de supervivencia. Cada vez vivo cada momento con una intensidad terrible. Anoche, volviendo de Boston, me tumbé en el coche y me dejé llevar por las luces de colores, la música de la radio, el reflejo del tipo que conducía. Todo fluía sobre mí con un dolor chillón... recuerda, recuerda, esto es ahora, y ahora, y ahora. Vívelo, siéntelo, aférrate a él. Quiero ser plenamente consciente de todo lo que he dado por sentado. Cuando sientes que ésta puede ser la despedida, la última vez, te golpea más fuerte.

  Sylvia Plath

• Cumplir puede ser una estrategia eficaz para la supervivencia física, pero es pésima para la realización personal. Vivir una vida satisfactoria requiere algo más que cumplir las exigencias de quienes tienen el control. Sin embargo, en nuestros despachos y aulas hay demasiada conformidad y muy poco compromiso. Puede que lo primero te permita pasar el día, pero sólo lo segundo te permitirá pasar la noche.

• At the most simplistic level physicists tell us that what we see as reality is not actually accurate. A rock looks solid to us but it's full of empty space and atoms moving and we see it as solid because we need to because it helps us survive, right? Survival being our goal. You can extrapolate that to many other things.
