Ta-Nehisi Coates
“To yell “black-on-black crime” is to shoot a man and then shame him for bleeding.”
Ta-Nehisi Coates, Between the World and Me

David Grann
“A prominent member of the Osage tribe put the matter more bluntly: "It is a question in my mind whether this jury is considering a murder case or not. The question for them to decide is whether a white man killing an Osage is murder - or merely cruelty to animals.”
David Grann, Killers of the Flower Moon: The Osage Murders and the Birth of the FBI

Min Jin Lee
“In Seoul, people like me get called Japanese bastards, and in Japan, I'm just another dirty Korean no matter how much money I make or how nice I am. So what the fuck?”
Min Jin Lee, Pachinko

Min Jin Lee
“All these people - both the Japanese and the Koreans - are fucked because they keep thinking about the group. But here's the truth: There's no such thing as a benevolent leader.”
Min Jin Lee, Pachinko

William Shakespeare
“These violent delights have violent ends
And in their triumph die, like fire and powder,
Which as they kiss consume. The sweetest honey
Is loathsome in his own deliciousness
And in the taste confounds the appetite.
Therefore love moderately; long love doth so;
Too swift arrives as tardy as too slow.”
William Shakespeare, Romeo and Juliet
