― George Orwell, 1984

“Why are women... so much more interesting to men than men are to women?”
― Virginia Woolf

“Tolerance grows only when faith loses certainty; certainty is murderous.”

“Sixty years ago I knew everything; now I know nothing; education is a progressive discovery of our own ignorance.”
