“Sometimes it's possible, just barely possible, to imagine a version of this world different from the existing one, a world in which there is true justice, heroic honesty, a clear perception possessed by each individual about how to treat all the others.

― Ben H. Winters, Underground Airlines

― Otis Y. Chandler

“I tell them that the only peace you find up on a mountain is the peace you bring with you.”
