Nicolás Gómez Dávila
“That the French Revolution was essentially a religious phenomenon was only seen with clarity by Joseph de Maistre and Jules Michelet.”
Nicolás Gómez Dávila

Adam Tooze
“life expectancy among working-class white Americans had been decreasing since the early 2000s. In modern history the only obvious parallel was with Russia in the desperate aftermath of the fall of the Soviet Union. One journalistic essay and academic research paper after another confirmed the disaster, until the narrative was capped in 2015 by Anne Case and Angus Deaton’s famous account of “deaths of despair.”
Adam Tooze, Crashed: How a Decade of Financial Crises Changed the World

Alessandro Busà
“Over a decade of citywide rezonings, land speculations, and corporate bidding wars for available commercial space has produced a Darwinian habitat where corporate retail proliferates, and where mom-and-pops have become an endangered species.”
Alessandro Busà, The Creative Destruction of New York City: Engineering the City for the Elite

Katherine Applegate
“When you forgive, you lose your anger, and when you lose your anger, you get weak.
And when you're weak, you can get hurt all over again.”
Katherine Applegate, The One and Only Bob

Alessandro Busà
“And the space created by capital is a very seductive space indeed— provided you have the money.”
Alessandro Busà, The Creative Destruction of New York City: Engineering the City for the Elite
