"Finally picking this back up again after being sick for a month with Covid and flu. The chapter on Capitalism was astounding. So much of it put into words that debunks trickle down economics. I’m now reading the politics chapter. I’m coming at this after a fresh new found perspective on WWII and nationalism and the rise of evil while many of the Republicans call for Christian nationalism and sides with Putin war."

Hunter S. Thompson
“Coming of age in a fascist police state will not be a barrel of fun for anybody, much less for people like me, who are not inclined to suffer Nazis gladly and feel only contempt for the cowardly flag-suckers who would gladly give up their outdated freedom to live for the mess of pottage they have been conned into believing will be freedom from fear.”
Hunter S. Thompson, Kingdom of Fear: Loathsome Secrets of a Star-Crossed Child in the Final Days of the American Century

Jules Verne, A Journey to the Centre of the Earth

Harper Lee
“Let the dead bury the dead.”
Harper Lee, To Kill a Mockingbird

“It's not necessary to tell all you know. It's not ladylike- in the second place, folks don't like to have somebody around knowin' more than they do.”
