Antoine de Saint-Exupéry
“It's to feel that in laying down one's stone, one is contributing to the building of the world.”
Antione de Saint-Exupèry

Alexander von Humboldt
“What speaks to the soul, escapes our measurements.”
Alexander von Humboldt

“To read history, to debate history, is to test our assumptions in the laboratory of real events; to learn, in the process, some appropriate humility about our capacity to forestall crises; and to grasp that extraordinary moments generally demand that ordinary assumptions be hurled out the window. Model-based social sciences, with their search for certainties that appear constant in large sets of data, teach neither humility nor flexibility.”
Sebastian Mallaby

“A deadline is a powerful enforcer of creativity.”
Jim Nelson (former Editor-in-Chief GQ magazine)

Dominique Schnapper
“The experience of the 1930s shows that it is not in ceding to the demands of one's enemies, and seeking compromise, that democracy has a chance to save itself, but rather in affirming its values and being ready to fight to defend them”
Dominique Schnapper
