Ayaan Hirsi Ali
“The argument in this book is that religious doctrines matter and are in need of reform.”
Ayaan Hirsi Ali, Heretic: Why Islam Needs a Reformation Now

Kurt Vonnegut Jr.
“All moments, past, present and future, always have existed, always will exist.”
Kurt Vonnegut, Slaughterhouse-Five

N.H. Kleinbaum
“Because no matter what anyone tells you, words and ideas have the power to change the world.”
N.H. Kleinbaum, Dead Poets Society

A.R. Merrydew
“   ‘I knew it, I knew it, I damn well knew it,’ he shouted. ‘The President was right you’re all infected with this wretched MeMe chromosome even at the dawn of your pathetic little planet’s evolution. You do realise of course there’s no hope for you. It’s all going to be a complete and utter waste of time. You and your little planet are all doomed.”
A.R. Merrydew, Our Blue Orange

Donald Miller
“If the point of life is the same as the point of a story, the point of life is character transformation. If I got any comfort as I set out on my first story, it was that in nearly every story, the protagonist is transformed. He's a jerk at the beginning and nice at the end, or a coward at the beginning and brave at the end. If the character doesn't change, the story hasn't happened yet. And if story is derived from real life, if story is just condensed version of life then life itself may be designed to change us so that we evolve from one kind of person to another. ”
Donald Miller, A Million Miles in a Thousand Years: What I Learned While Editing My Life
