“Scholars have argued that without humanism the Reformation could not have succeeded, and it is certainly difficult to imagine the Reformation occurring without the knowledge of languages, the critical handling of sources, the satirical attacks on clerics and scholastics, and the new national feeling that a generation of humanists provided. On the other hand, the long-term success of the humanists owed something to the Reformation. In Protestant schools and universities classical culture found a permanent home. The humanist curriculum, with its stress on languages and history, became a lasting model for the arts curriculum.”
Steven Ozment, The Age of Reform 1250-1550: An Intellectual and Religious History of Late Medieval and Reformation Europe

Péter Esterházy
“Mármost ha az a helyzet, hogy mindenki tök, csak mi állunk a vártán ragyogón, okosan, mint a nap, akkor azért érdemes gyanút fogni.”
Péter Esterházy, Az elefántcsonttoronyból

“People are afraid to merge.”
Bret Easton Ellis, Less Than Zero

Anthony Burgess
“Nincs választási lehetősége, vagy igen? Az önérdek, a testi fájdalomtól való rettegés bírta rá erre a groteszk megalázkodásra. A dolog őszintétlensége nyilvánvaló volt. Többé nem követ el rosszat. De nem is lesz lehetősége erkölcsi választásra.”
Anthony Burgess

Kurt Vonnegut Jr.
“If you can do a half-assed job of anything, you're a one-eyed man in a kingdom of the blind.”
Kurt Vonnegut
