Anne  Michaud
“Being a leading power couple means not only submitting to media scrutiny but also commanding coverage. To leave the marriage behind is to step out of the spotlight. It means fading into normalcy, returning to ordinary life, perhaps an impossible admission for women who have built their egos on being one member of a leading couple.”
Anne Michaud, Why They Stay: Sex Scandals, Deals, and Hidden Agendas of Nine Political Wives

Franz Kafka
“You are at once both the quiet and the confusion of my heart; imagine my heartbeat when you are in this state.”
Franz Kafka, Letters to Felice

Edwin A. Abbott
“This omnividence, as you call it—it is not a common word in Spaceland—does it make you more just, more merciful, less selfish, more loving? Not in the least. Then how does it make you more divine?

Edwin A. Abbott, Flatland: A Romance of Many Dimensions

Barry Kirwan
“You’ve enlarged your original mission parameters. That’s what happens in war.”
Barry Kirwan, When the children come

Primo Levi
