About This Quote
This quote is from the book "Logan's Run" written by William F. Nolan and George Clayton Johnson. In the book, a man named Logan finds a book that tells him he has only so many days to live. As he reads the book, he finds out that if he dies before finding a girl to love, he will be sent back to the future.
The idea of being sent back to a certain year is common in science fiction, but this is one of the few books that does it right. The idea that something as simple as a person could know who they will fall in love with and what year they will die before is life changing.
