Philip K. Dick Quote

Is it a loss? Rachael repeated. I don’t really know; I have no way to tell. How does it feel to have a child? How does it feel to be born, for that matter? We’re not born; we don’t grow up; instead of dying from illness or old age, we wear out like ants. Ants again; that’s what we are. Not you; I mean me. Chitinous reflex-machines who aren’t really alive. She twisted her head to one side, said loudly, I’m not alive!
