Sara’s Quotes

“Alone, we are food for the wolves. That’s how they want us. Isolated. Prey. So we must find each other. We must remember that we do not exist alone.”
― Hari Kunzru, Red Pill

“He based these anecdotes largely on stories he'd read in unverified accounts in small-town newspapers and crackpot magazines. It didn't matter that most of the facts and figures didn't check out. They stuck where it mattered: in the craw of hardworking taxpayers who felt cheated by so-called government entitlements. John Sears grew concerned that these yarns of Reagan's might come back to haunt him.”
― Bob Spitz, Reagan: An American Journey

“Hey, Serge, I just realized that 'slow up' and 'slow down' mean the same thing. That's fucked.”
― Tim Dorsey, Naked Came the Florida Man: A Novel

“What at all can we ever really possess?”

“What has modern civilization with its "rule of law", its giant industrial enterprises, its "representative democracy," brought? Nuclear missiles already aimed and ready for the destruction of the world, and populations --literate, well fed, and constantly voting-- of a mind to accept this madness. Civilization has failed on two counts: it has perverted the natural resources of the earth, which have the capacity to make our lives joyful, and also the natural resources of people, which have the potential for genius and love.”
― Howard Zinn
