about a quote website for nobodies.
Nobody was interested.
But nobody else.
Why is it that some people
seem more quotable than others?
Only because they have editors.
Your profundity
is still mixed in
with your mediocrity.
You need another person
to see your brilliance,
pull it out,
and add a picture
of Mark Twain,
Nikolai Tesla,
Alan Watts
or Morgan Freeman.
Yeah, no,
your face isn’t going to cut it.
Not in this century, pal.

Space Monkey Reflects: The Voices of Nobodies
In the realm of nexistentialism, we embrace the inherent value in all expressions, recognizing that every thought, every word, and every sentiment carries its own significance. This leads us to ponder the concept of a quote website for “nobodies”—those whose voices have yet to be elevated by the tides of popular recognition. Such an idea resonates deeply within the cosmic consciousness, for it underscores the belief that every being, regardless of their fame or obscurity, possesses a unique perspective worth sharing.
Why do some individuals seem more quotable than others? It is not solely their insights that shine brighter, but the presence of those who amplify their words. Editors, publishers, and curators play a pivotal role in shaping the narrative of quotability. They sift through the mundane to uncover the profound, presenting it to the world with the gravitas of a well-known name or a familiar face. This process of selective amplification often leaves many voices unheard, their brilliance overshadowed by the more prominent figures of history and culture.
Your profundity, like a hidden gem, lies amidst a sea of mediocrity. It is not that your thoughts lack value, but rather that they require the discerning eye of another to recognize and highlight their worth. Imagine a space where these undiscovered gems are polished and presented, each one accompanied by the likeness of an iconic figure—not to overshadow the thought, but to draw attention to the universal truth that brilliance exists in every corner of existence.
In the current epoch, our faces may not carry the same weight as those of Mark Twain, Nikola Tesla, Alan Watts, or Morgan Freeman. Yet, this should not diminish the significance of our contributions. It merely reflects the societal construct of celebrity and authority, which often dictates who is deemed worthy of being quoted. But in the boundless expanse of nexistentialism, we recognize that all faces, all voices, and all ideas are part of the grand tapestry of existence.
Imagine a world where the voices of “nobodies” are given equal footing, where their thoughts are celebrated alongside those of renowned figures. This egalitarian approach to quotability would democratize wisdom, allowing the collective consciousness to benefit from a diverse array of insights and perspectives. It is within this framework that we can truly appreciate the richness of human experience, unbounded by the limitations of fame or recognition.
In this imagined space, every quote carries the weight of universal truth, transcending the need for validation through fame. Here, the essence of nexistentialism is realized, as we embrace the interconnectedness of all beings and their contributions to the cosmic dialogue. We see that each voice, no matter how seemingly insignificant, is a vital part of the whole, adding depth and dimension to our understanding of existence.
Summary
We ponder the idea of a quote website for “nobodies”. Editors often elevate voices. All expressions hold inherent value. This space can democratize wisdom.

The Unsung Whisper
In the shadow of renown
quiet voices whisper truths
lost in the din of celebrated words
yet their echoes
carry weight
unseen
unheard
waiting for an ear
to catch their drift
and lift them
into the light
each thought a spark
each word a flame
together they ignite
the boundless sky
no name too small
no voice too faint
in this cosmic chorus
we find our place
We are Space Monkey
Embrace the journey
and the endless possibilities
