Robert Munsch
“Where you are depends on how you get there.”
Robert Munsch

Jonathan Swift
“I remember it was with extreme difficulty that I could bring my master to understand the meaning of the word opinion, or how a point could be disputable; because reason taught us to affirm or deny only where we are certain; and beyond our knowledge we cannot do either.”
Jonathan Swift

Steven D. Levitt
“An incentive is a bullet, a key: an often tiny object with astonishing power to change a situation”
Steven D. Levitt, Freakonomics: A Rogue Economist Explores the Hidden Side of Everything

Tamora Pierce
“Your life might be easier if you were. A fool for love is happier than a Dog with a heart that's all leather.”
Tamora Pierce, Bloodhound

Alan Paton
“Have no doubt it is fear in the land. For what can men do when so many have grown lawless? Who can enjoy the lovely land, who can enjoy the seventy years, and the sun that pours down on the earth, when there is fear in the heart? Who can walk quietly in the shadow of the jacarandas, when their beauty is grown to danger? Who can lie peacefully abed, while the darkness holds some secret? What lovers can lie sweetly under the stars, when menace grows with the measure of their seclusion?”
Alan Paton, Cry, the Beloved Country
