Name the book this quote was taken from:

"There is a theory which states that if ever anyone discovers exactly what the Universe is for and why it is here, it will instantly disappear and be replaced by something even more bizarre and inexplicable.
There is another theory which states that this has already happened."

Seven stage denial to break the pieces further
To whisper on the wind how you can't appease me further
To color all your words with the stain of introspection
To hope to realign the webs of fate we're spinning

Admas was one of the more underappreciated writers of our time. May he RIP.

The Hitchhiker's series (I'd call it a trilogy, since that's what it goes by...all 5 books of it...but I guess that would be confusing) was terrific...I think I started reading it when I was 11 or so, since I'd already been playing the computer game for a while. Don't think I ever finished it, though, actually...well, got partway through 'So Long and Thanks for All the Fish,' but then I had to give it back to whoever and never had the money to buy the last two (or couldn't find a store that carried them).
