Miguel de Cervantes Saavedra
“I have never died all my life”
Miguel de Cervantes Saavedra, Don Quixote

Yvonne Korshak
“We’re not here to argue with you about the wisdom of our alliance that has kept the Persians at bay for forty years. An argument requires a measure of equality between those in the dispute and Samos is not the equal of Athens.”
Yvonne Korshak, Pericles and Aspasia: A Story of Ancient Greece

Dan Simmons
“Sol wanted to know how any ethical system – much less a religion so indomitable that it had survived every evil mankind could throw at it – could flow from a command from God for a man to slaughter his son. It did not matter to Sol that the command had been rescinded at the last moment. It did not matter that the command was a test of obedience. In fact, the idea that it was the obedience of Abraham which allowed him to become the father of all the tribes of Israel was precisely what drove Sol into fits of fury.”
Dan Simmons, Hyperion

Paramahansa Yogananda
“If you don’t invite God to be your summer Guest, He won’t come in the winter of your life.”
Paramahansa Yogananda, Autobiography of a Yogi

T.S. Eliot
“No poet, no artist of any art, has his complete meaning alone. His significance, his appreciation is the appreciation of his relation to the dead poets and artists. You cannot value him alone; you must set him, for contrast and comparison, among the dead. I mean this as a principle of aesthetic, not merely historical, criticism.”
T.S. Eliot, The Sacred Wood
