Herbert M. Shelton
“The intelligent person, viewing the great number of so-called diseases that arise out of this prostration of the functions of life, and realising that they have one and all grown out of the habitual violations of the laws of life, will recognise at once that the first step in the restoration of health needs must be to make amends at once by the unconditional return to the simplicity and perfect obedience to the laws that have been so perseveringly violated.”
Herbert M. Shelton, Food Combining Made Easy

Herbert M. Shelton
“Conventional eating habits violate all of the rules of food combining in the preceding chapters and, since the majority of people manage to live for at least a few years and to "enjoy" their aches and pains and their frequent "spells of sickness," few of them are willing to give any intelligent consideration to their eating habits. They usually declare, when the subject of food combining comes up, that they eat all of the condemned combinations regularly and it does not hurt them. Life and death, health and disease are mere matters of accident to them. Unfortunately they are encouraged in this view by medical advisers.”
Herbert M. Shelton

Ken Liu
“History is the long shadow cast by the past upon the future. Shadows, by nature, lack details.”
Ken Liu, The Wall of Storms

Vladimir Bartol
“I realized that the people are slothful and lax, and that it’s not worth it to sacrifice yourself for them. I had tried to exhort and rouse them to no avail. Do you think the overwhelming majority of people care about the truth? Far from it! They want to be left alone, and they want fairy tales to feed their hungry imaginations. But what about justice? They couldn’t care less, as long as you meet their personal needs. I didn’t want to fool myself anymore.”
Vladimir Bartol, Alamut

Iain Pears
“In a world of chemically induced sanity, a little lunacy confers immense advantages.”
Iain Pears, Arcadia
