John Steinbeck
“There is more beauty in truth, even if it is a dreadful beauty. The storytellers at the city gate twist life so that it looks sweet to the lazy and the stupid and the weak, and this only strengthens their infirmities and teaches nothing, cures nothing, nor does it let the heart soar.”
John Steinbeck, East of Eden

Nathaniel Hawthorne
“She had not known the weight until she felt the freedom.”
Nathaniel Hawthorne, The Scarlet Letter

Leif Enger
“Once traveling, it's remarkable how quickly faith erodes. It starts to look like something else--ignorance, for example. Same thing happened to the Israelites. Sure it's weak, but sometimes you'd rather just have a map.”
Leif Enger, Peace Like a River

Margaret Atwood
“We were the people who were not in the papers. We lived in the blank white spaces at the edges of print. It gave us more freedom.
We lived in the gaps between the stories.”
Margaret Atwood, The Handmaid’s Tale

“Famine was the mark of a maturing agricultural society, the very badge of civilization.”
Richard Manning, Against the Grain: How Agriculture Has Hijacked Civilization
