Anne Frank
“It must be awful to feel you're not needed.”
Anne Frank, The Diary of a Young Girl

Robert Fulghum
“Until you have experienced raccoons mating underneath your bedroom at three in the morning, you have missed one of life's sensational moments.”
Robert Fulghum, All I Really Need to Know I Learned in Kindergarten

Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley
“These reflections have dispelled the agitation with which I began my letter and I feel my heart glow with an enthusiasm whcih elevates me to heaven, for nothing contributes so much to tranqualize the mind as a steady purpose - a point on which the soul may fix its intellectual eye.”
Mary Shelley, Frankenstein

Tracy Kidder
“[Farmer] went to dozens of American and Canadian universities and colleges, preaching his O for the P [Preferential Option for the Poor] gospel, and to South Africa, where he debated a World Bank official at an international AIDS conference. "Africans must learn to curb their sexual appetites," the banker remarked, and Farmer replied, "I want to talk about other bankers, not the World Bankers, but bankers in general. My suspicion is they're not getting a lot of sex, because they spend a lot of time screwing the poor.”
Tracy Kidder

Philip Pullman
“It takes long practice, yes. You have to work. Did you think you could snap your fingers, and have it as a gift? What is worth having is worth working for.”
Philip Pullman, The Amber Spyglass
