简介：     “就像科学和宗教不冲突一样，所有的矛盾都将迎刃而解，而我们也将成为真正的神明。”　　“如果不做出改变就会被淘汰，那这伤痕累累的身体不要也罢。而我只有在这漫漫长夜中，才能得到来自星辰的安慰。”　　“平凡又怎么样，普通又怎么样……我生来如此我抱怨过什么吗？还轮不到你这种杂碎来落井下石!”　　命运的篇章总是华而不实，正义背后的腐朽糜烂又肮脏得令人不忍直视，究竟是什么创造了这样的世界?又有怎样肮脏的污水在连接城市的水管中倒流?　　“既然沐浴在他的光辉和罪恶之下，我就注定要成为比他还强的存在。”　　“我献上我的一切，即使不是施恩的善人，我也一定不会是穷凶极恶的坏人。”　　“死人的话少，但我更喜欢能陪我弱下去的活人。失望也无所谓，我已经习惯了。”　　安逸享乐的时光飞速流逝，但或许还能剩下点岁月的沉淀，将它打磨成钻石雕琢出自由的形状，那就是无上的荣耀。　　“我发誓，绝不背弃我的信仰，绝不抛弃我的伙伴。”
