Virginia Woolf
“A woman's writing is always feminine; it cannot help being feminine; at its best it is most feminine; the only difficulty lies in defining what we mean by feminine.”
Virginia Woolf

Donna Tartt
“Caring too much for objects can destroy you. Only—if you care for a thing enough, it takes on a life of its own, doesn’t it? And isn’t the whole point of things—beautiful things—that they connect you to some larger beauty?”
Donna Tartt, The Goldfinch

Bertrand Russell
“To fear love is to fear life, and those who fear life are already three parts dead.”
Bertrand Russell

François de La Rochefoucauld
“On n'est jamais si heureux ni si malheureux qu'on s'imagine.”
François La Rochefoucauld, Réflexions ou sentences et maximes morales

S.T. Joshi
“The atheist, agnostic, or secularist ... should guard against the encroachment of religion in areas where it has no place, and in particular the control of education by religious authority. The attempts to ban the teaching of evolution or other scientific theories -- a feeble echo of medieval church tyranny and hostility to learning, but an echo nonetheless are serious threats to freedom of inquiry and should be vigorously combated.”
S.T. Joshi, Atheism: A Reader
