Anne Fadiman
“Unfortunately, as [the french critic] Tzvetan Todorov reminds us, "The first, spontaneous reaction with regard to the stranger is to imagine him as inferior, since he is different from us".”
Anne Fadiman, The Spirit Catches You and You Fall Down: A Hmong Child, Her American Doctors, and the Collision of Two Cultures

Ruth Ware
“There was a little spritz of sequined leaves across the right shoulder because you didn’t seem to be able to get away with none. Apparently the majority of ball gowns were designed by five-year-old girls armed with glitter guns, but at least this one didn’t look entirely like an explosion in a Barbie factory.”
Ruth Ware, The Woman in Cabin 10

Susanna Clarke
“She wore a gown the colour of storms, shadows and rain and a necklace of broken promises and regret.”
Susanna Clarke, Jonathan Strange & Mr Norrell

Alan Rickman
“Jurassic Park—what the hell is the plot? Great dinosaurs.”
Alan Rickman, Madly, Deeply: The Diaries of Alan Rickman

Sam Quinones
“America bought into Charles Dickens's Scrooge; they couldn't get past making the money. But it is about taking care of the family of Bob Cratchit. It is taking care of Tiny Tim that matters, that actually brings joy into your life. We forgot that. We were quite content to have our workers throw a piece of coal on the fire to stay warm. America did that. Charles Dickens gave us the warning, told us, 'Don't go down this road.' Think of the chains on Scrooge's business partner who died lonely, miserable; then your see him as a ghost with chains all around him. [...] -Bryan Davis”
Sam Quinones
