Thomas Sowell
“It takes considerable knowledge just to realize the extent of your own ignorance.”
Thomas Sowell

Kingsley Amis
“If you want to finish the evening with your usual number of fingers, do any cutting-up, peel-slicing and the like before you have had more than a couple of drinks, preferably before your first.”
Kingsley Amis, Everyday Drinking: The Distilled Kingsley Amis

Martin Amis
“The deal with multiculturalism is that the only culture you're allowed to disapprove of is your own.”
Martin Amis

Richard Woodman
“To the threshold of the century…three hundred years had gone by since the discovery of America, and in the great changes of that period oceanic enterprise had been a causative agent at least as important as any other. The rate of change, slow at first, had steadily increased, but it was still in reasonable proportion to the duration of man’s life and the capacity of his mind. Since then the rate has quickened out of proportion to that factor fixed by Nature. Man now is born in one world and dies in another, alien altogether to the world of his formative years. It is stimulating if unhealthy, and where it will lead, none knows. But for good or ill it is the process of modern history. J.A. Williamson, 1938.”
Richard Woodman, Beyond Madagascar: A Bold & Consequential Voyage

Martin Amis
“Pain is nature’s way of telling us that something is wrong. Patiently, pain goes on telling us this, long after we’ve got the message.”
Martin Amis, Money
