Raymond Chandler
“Some days I feel like playing it smooth. Some days I feel like playing it like a waffle iron.”
Raymond Chandler, Trouble Is My Business

P.G. Wodehouse
“It is true of course, that I have a will of iron, but it can be switched off if the circumstances seem to demand it.”
P.G. Wodehouse, Jeeves in the Morning

P.G. Wodehouse
“We Woosters do not lightly forget. At least, we do - some things - appointments, and people's birthdays, and letters to post, and all that - but not an absolutely bally insult like the above.”
P.G. Wodehouse, The Inimitable Jeeves

Jalal ad-Din Muhammad ar-Rumi
“Don't be satisfied with stories, how things have gone with others. Unfold your own myth.”
Rumi, The Essential Rumi

Joan Robinson
“The purpose of studying economics is not to acquire a set of ready-made answers to economic questions, but to learn how to avoid being deceived by economists.”
Joan Robinson
