Naomi Klein
“The dirty secret of the neoliberal era is that these ideas were never defeated in a great battle of ideas, nor were they voted down in elections. They were shocked out of the way at key political junctures.”
Naomi Klein, The Shock Doctrine: The Rise of Disaster Capitalism

Adam Smith
“Every species of animals naturally multiplies in proportion to the means of their subsistence, and no species can ever multiply beyond it. But in civilised society it is only among the inferior ranks of people that the scantiness of subsistence can set limits to the further multiplication of the human species; and it can do so in no other way than by destroying a great part of the children which their fruitful marriages produce.”
Adam Smith, An Inquiry into the Nature and Causes of the Wealth of Nations

Lee Matthew Goldberg
“The music grew louder, faster, as we saw an empty couch on the balcony and ran to get it, pushed aside another couple darting for the same thing, but it was ours, and we smiled wide, laughing at our fortune, our couch.”
Lee Matthew Goldberg, Slow Down

Tracy Chevalier
“I could not think of anything but his fingers on my neck, his thumb on my lips.”
Tracy Chevalier, Girl with a Pearl Earring

Kim Edwards
“The love was within her all the time, and its only renewal came from giving it away.”
Kim Edwards, The Memory Keeper's Daughter
