They can only live here in Jurassic Park. They are not free at all. They are essentially our prisoners.

(0 Reviews)
In Michael Crichton's "Jurassic Park," the notion of freedom is explored through the lives of the dinosaurs contained within the park. Despite being brought back to life and existing in a seemingly lush environment, they are ultimately prisoners of human innovation and control. Their existence is entirely dependent on the technological and managerial choices made by the park's creators, illustrating a stark irony in their creation. This quote encapsulates the fundamental theme of captivity versus freedom. The dinosaurs may roam the park, but they are constrained by the very boundaries set by their human captors. This lack of true freedom raises ethical questions about the responsibilities of those who possess the power to manipulate life and the consequences of their actions on the creatures they create.

People pontificate, "Suicide is selfishness." Career churchmen like Pater go a step further and call in a cowardly assault on the living. Oafs argue this specious line for varying reason: to evade fingers of blame, to impress one's audience with one's mental fiber, to vent anger, or just because one lacks the necessary suffering to sympathize. Cowardice is nothing to do with it - suicide takes considerable courage. Japanese have the right idea. No, what's selfish is to demand another to endure an intolerable existence, just to spare families, friends, and enemies a bit of soul-searching.

You say you're 'depressed' - all i see is resilience. You are allowed to feel messed up and inside out. It doesn't mean you're defective - it just means you're human.

Books don't offer real escape, but they can stop a mind scratching itself raw.
