George Orwell
“We are the dead. Our only true life is in the future. We shall take part in it as handfuls of dust and splinters of bone. But how far away that future may be, there is no knowing. It might be a thousand years. At present nothing is possible except to extend the area of sanity little by little. We cannot act collectively.
We can only spread our knowledge outwards from individual to individual, generation after generation. In the face of the Thought Police there is no other way.”
George Orwell, 1984

Kevin Ansbro
“Books are the flung-open windows to a parallel universe.”
Kevin Ansbro

Edward W. Said
“Texts are not finished objects.”
Edward W. Said, Culture and Imperialism

Karen Chance
“I ate it all, washed down by a good English beer, except for the tongue, although I eyed even that. After all, it was just beef, right? But I couldn't do it. Tasting something that might be tasting me back freaked me out.”
Karen Chance, Ignite the Fire: Incendiary

“Deep Space Nine was a Star Trek for the complex, conflict-ridden post–Cold War era. Whereas The Next Generation captured a shining moment of utopian optimism, Deep Space Nine was the thud of reality intruding upon fantasy. It”
Stephen Benedict Dyson, Otherworldly Politics: The International Relations of Star Trek, Game of Thrones, and Battlestar Galactica
