Salman Rushdie
“It may be argued that the past is a country from which we have all emigrated, that its loss is part of our common humanity.”
Salman Rushdie, Imaginary Homelands: Essays and Criticism 1981-1991
tags: home, past

Greg Mortenson
“Once you educate the boys, they tend to leave the villages and go search for work in the cities, but the girls stay home, become leaders in the community, and pass on what they’ve learned. If you really want to change a culture, to empower women, improve basic hygiene and health care, and fight high rates of infant mortality, the answer is to educate girls.”
Greg Mortenson, Three Cups of Tea: One Man's Mission to Promote Peace ... One School at a Time

Christopher Paolini
“Eragon.

Is that all you say?

Yes.”
Christopher Paolini, Eragon

Orson Scott Card
“Fiction, because it is not about somebody who actually lived in the real world, always has the possibility of being about oneself.”
Orson Scott Card, Ender's Game

Nicholas Sparks
“It's the first line in your book. I always thought there was a lot of truth in that. Or maybe that's what my English teacher said. I can't really remember. I read it last semester."

- Your parents must be so proud you can read."

- They are. They bought me a pony and everything when I did a book report on Cat in the Hat.”
Nicholas Sparks, The Last Song
