Stephen  King
“The road to hell is paved with adverbs.”
Stephen King, On Writing: A Memoir of the Craft

Milton Friedman
“A society that puts equality before freedom will get neither. A society that puts freedom before equality will get a high degree of both.”
Milton Friedman

Karl Popper
“What a monument of human smallness is this idea of the philosopher king. What a contrast between it and the simplicity of humaneness of Socrates, who warned the statesmen against the danger of being dazzled by his own power, excellence, and wisdom, and who tried to teach him what matters most — that we are all frail human beings.”
Karl R. Popper, The Open Society and Its Enemies

George Orwell
“Perhaps one did not want to be loved so much as to be understood.”
George Orwell, 1984

Ralph Waldo Emerson
“For every minute you are angry you lose sixty seconds of happiness.”
Ralph Waldo Emerson
