Quote 1:
"At the end of the hundred days, Discovery would close down. All the crew would go into hibernation; only the essential systems would continue to operate, watched over by the ship's tireless electronic brain." (p. 87)

Quote 2:
"His [HAL's] prime task was to monitor the life-support systems, continually checking oxygen pressure, temperature, hull leakage, radiation, and all the other interlocking factors upon which the lives of the fragile human cargo depended. He could carry out the intricate navigational correction, and execute the necessary flight manoeuvres when it was time to change course. And he would watch over the hibernators, making any necessary adjustments to their environment and doling out the minute quantities of intravenous fluids to keep them alive." (p. 93)

Quote 3:
"Directly opposite him was one of the fisheye lenses, scattered at strategic spots throughout the ship, which provided Hal with his onboard visual inputs. Bowman stared at it as if he had never seen it before; then he rose slowly to his feet and walked toward the lens. His movement in the field of view must have triggered something int he unfathomable mind that was now ruling over the ship; for suddenly, Hal spoke." (p. 146)
