Tracy Kidder
“Jim was sometimes asked what single thing he’d do to end homelessness. On one of those occasions, he cited large population studies about the tight connection between health and educational status. If he had the power, he said, he’d pay public school teachers $200,000 a year and maybe thirty years later homelessness would become a rarity. Maybe what he called “the faucet” would be turned off. More often, he spoke of a more general solution—“What we need is a new war on poverty.”
Tracy Kidder, Rough Sleepers

“Dreaming also has a negative connotation as well. Some people dream and stop there. They never do anything about making their dreams come true.”
Dave Ramsey, EntreLeadership: 20 Years of Practical Business Wisdom from the Trenches

“There was no going back now. Rubber and metal could only take so much. The car could shatter and send its passengers into an elemental distillation of rock, flesh, blood, and ash. Alchemy, thought Mary, grimly. Too much bloody alchemy.”
Susan Rowland, The Alchemy Fire Murder

Raz Mihal
“Words can’t imprison Love.”
Raz Mihal, Just Love Her

Thomas More
“for one man to abound in wealth and pleasure when all about him are mourning and groaning, is to be a gaoler and not a king.”
Thomas More, Utopia: Saint Thomas More Imagines an Ideal Society
