Giuseppe Tomasi di Lampedusa
“A youth can allow itself to be somewhat pleasant with us, since it's so convinced, that it's gonna be free the day after our funeral.”
Giuseppe Tomasi di Lampedusa, The Leopard

John Keahey
“They always build as if they expect to live for eternity; they always eat as if they expect to die the next day.”
John Keahey, Seeking Sicily: A Cultural Journey Through Myth and Reality in the Heart of the Mediterranean

Ian W. Toll
“A bedrock tenet of communications intelligence was that the enemy must always be encouraged to “feel safe,” and never given cause to suspect that his radio transmissions were less than impenetrable.”
Ian W. Toll, Pacific Crucible: War at Sea in the Pacific, 1941–1942

Giuseppe Tomasi di Lampedusa
“the animal had died tortured by anxious hopes of salvation, imagining it could still escape when it was already caught, just like so many human beings.”
Giuseppe Tomasi di Lampedusa, The Leopard

John  Langan
“Remember the fairy tales, all the witches and wizards with their houses in the woods. Maybe they want privacy for their work. Maybe there is something about the places they choose to live. Maybe the world is thinner there. Maybe they can hear the sounds they are listening for more clearly.”
John Langan, The Fisherman
