...we haven't had any accidents for months now...Everything on that island is perfectly fine.

In Michael Crichton's "Jurassic Park," the narrative showcases a theme of false security, where the characters believe that everything is under control. The quote, "we haven't had any accidents for months now...Everything on that island is perfectly fine," reflects a superficial sense of safety that the characters feel regarding the stability of the park. This optimism masks the underlying dangers that exist due to the unpredictability of nature and human interference with it.

As the story unfolds, the confidence expressed in this quote becomes increasingly ironic. The characters' assurance of safety serves to heighten the tension as the audience knows that the park's true risks are imminent. Crichton illustrates how reliance on technology and perceived order can lead to catastrophic consequences when the limits of control are tested by the power of life itself, making the narrative a cautionary tale about the hubris of modern science.

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.
