Best Books I've Read
The following is a chronological list of some of the best books I have read in my lifetime. In most cases, I read the author's entire output, but the book listed was either the first I read, or one I remember well.

1. The Double – Fyodor Dostoyevsky
2. Group Portrait with Lady – Heinrich Boll
3. Never Cry Wolf – Farley Mowat
4. Zorba the Greek – Nikos Kazantzakis

“When I was 5 years old, my mother always told me that happiness was the key to life. When I went to school, they asked me what I wanted to be when I grew up. I wrote down ‘happy’. They told me I didn’t understand the assignment, and I told them they didn’t understand life.”

“Democracy just cannot flourish amid fear. Liberty cannot bloom amid hate. Justice cannot take root amid rage. America must get to work. . . . We must dissent from the indifference. We must dissent from the apathy. We must dissent from the fear, the hatred, and the mistrust.”

“For as long as ours has been a nation of immigrants, we have been a nation that fears immigrants. Fear of the other is woven into the fabric of our American culture, and unscrupulous people in power have exploited that fear in pursuit of political advantage.”
