James Hilton
“Life's more important than a living. So many people who make a living are making death, not life. Don't ever join them. They're the gravediggers of our civilization -- the safe men, the compromisers, the money-makers, the muddlers-through.”
James Hilton, Random Harvest

Howard Zinn
“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

Howard Zinn
“It is precisely the nature of modern mass murder that it is not visibly direct like individual murder, but takes on a corporate character, where every participant has limited liability.”
Howard Zinn

Jane Mayer
“It was as if the Reagans felt the rules were never meant to apply strictly to them or to the people who worked for their administration. But in a decade whose cultural heroes included Donald Trump, Lee Iacocca, and T. Boone Pickens, Jr., Reagan's blurring of the distinctions between wealth and commonwealth caused him no political damage. If anything, it simply underlined the extent to which he was the consummate man of his time.”
Jane Mayer, Landslide: The Unmaking of the President, 1984-1988
tags: 1988

Mark Z. Danielewski
“What at all can we ever really possess?”
Mark Z. Danielewski, House of Leaves
