“We shouldn't be looking for heroes, we should be looking for good ideas.”
Noam Chomsky

Chinua Achebe
“Writers don't give prescriptions. They give headaches!”
Chinua Achebe, Anthills of the Savannah

James Baldwin
“You think your pain and your heartbreak are unprecedented in the history of the world, but then you read. It was books that taught me that the things that tormented me most were the very things that connected me with all the people who were alive, who had ever been alive.”
James Baldwin

Noam Chomsky
“The whole educational and professional training system is a very elaborate filter, which just weeds out people who are too independent, and who think for themselves, and who don't know how to be submissive, and so on -- because they're dysfunctional to the institutions.”
Noam Chomsky

George Orwell
“Perhaps a lunatic was simply a minority of one.”
George Orwell, 1984
