― Charles Baudelaire, Les Fleurs du Mal

“To argue with a man who has renounced the use and authority of reason, and whose philosophy consists in holding humanity in contempt, is like administering medicine to the dead, or endeavoring to convert an atheist by scripture.”
― Thomas Paine, The American Crisis

“I am a slow walker, but I never walk back.”
― Abraham Lincoln

“A fear Paul had transformed all these years, like a gifted alchemist, into anger and rebellion.”
― Kim Edwards, The Memory Keeper's Daughter
