Michael Crichton
When I sit down in front of a Windows machine, I can't write when I sit down in front of my Mac, I can write. So I only use Macs.
Michael Crichton
You can answer your own question. You already know the answer, if you can just gain access to it.

Michael Crichton
Sometimes I think man needs to feel a special position within nature, and this leads him to believe that he is either specially hated by other animals or specially cherished. Instead of the truth, which is that he's just another animal on the plain. A smart one, but just another animal.
Michael Crichton
Safety is the last refuge of the scoundrel!
Michael Crichton
We live in a world of frightful givens. It is given that you will behave like this, given that you will care about that. No one thinks about the givens. Isn't it amazing? In the information society, nobody thinks. We expected to banish paper, but we actually banished thought.
Michael Crichton
We are one of only three species on our planet that can claim to be self-aware, yet self-delusion may be a more significant characteristic of our kind.
Michael Crichton
It's not easy to cut through a human head with a hacksaw.
Michael Crichton
We think we know what we are doing. We have always thought so.
Michael Crichton
Praise not the day until evening has come, a woman until she is burnt, a sword until it is tried, a maiden until she is married, ice until it has been crossed, beer until it has been drunk.
Michael Crichton
Having wallowed in a delightful orgy of anti-French sentiment, having deplored and applauded the villains themselves, having relished the foibles of bankers, railwaymen, diplomats, and police, the public was now ready to see its faith restored in the basic soundness of banks, railroads, government, and police.
Michael Crichton
If you don't know history, then you don't know anything. You are a leaf that doesn't know it is part of a tree.
Michael Crichton
