Cascading waves of change
The future we think to be inconsequential, can effect the future indefinitely
Once you had the power to effect monumental change, would you let fear consume you?
Or would you overcome?
We sent a message into the past, a warning
We have that message
Though this story is not inevitable, and a society does evolve.
We can change our fate,
We can change our future,
We can change the past.

Those of you helping us test the repulsion gel today, just follow the blue line on the floor. Those of you who volunteered to be injected with praying mantis DNA, I've got some good news and some bad news: bad news is we're postponing those tests indefinitely. Good news is we've got a much better test for you: fighting an army of mantis men. Pick up a rifle and follow the yellow line. You'll know when the test starts. - Cave Johnson

Alright, I've been thinking. When life gives you lemons, don't make lemonade - make life take the lemons back! Get mad! I don't want your damn lemons, what am I supposed to do with these? Demand to see life's manager. Make life rue the day it thought it could give Cave Johnson lemons. Do you know who I am? I'm the man who's gonna burn your house down! With the lemons. I'm going to to get my engineers to invent a combustible lemon that burns your house down! - Cave Johnson
