- However much my conscious mind knows that there is a power cut, my unconscious mind will still make me reach for the light switch when I enter a room.
- The ability to make fire is more important than I thought it was.
- There is a point to washing windows after all: it’s so they can let light through.
- A generator that’s sitting in a barn, not connected to anything, is just a lump of metal.
- Being disconnected from the internet feels like having my eyes plucked out.
