Hannah Arendt
“The effectiveness of this kind of propaganda demonstrates one of the chief characteristics of modern masses. They do not believe in anything visible, in the reality of their own experience; they do not trust their eyes and ears but only their imaginations, which may be caught by anything that is at once universal and consistent in itself. What convinces masses are not facts, and not even invented facts, but only the consistency of the system of which they are presumably part.”
Hannah Arendt, The Origins of Totalitarianism

Jia Tolentino
“Beauty work is labeled “self-care” to make it sound progressive”
Jia Tolentino, Trick Mirror: Reflections on Self-Delusion

Adam Kirsch
“During that long span of time, then, Jewish history would have to be written in other ways. It would become the story not of power, but of ideas and beliefs. And its most important turning points would not be the winning of wars or the building of monuments, but the writing of books.”
Adam Kirsch, The People and the Books: 18 Classics of Jewish Literature

Jia Tolentino
“The default assumption tends to be that it is politically important to designate everyone as beautiful, that it is a meaningful project to make sure that everyone can become, and feel, increasingly beautiful. We have hardly tried to imagine what it might look like if our culture could do the opposite—de-escalate the situation, make beauty matter less.”
Jia Tolentino, Trick Mirror: Reflections on Self-Delusion

Ron Chernow
“Hamilton, the human word machine,”
Ron Chernow, Alexander Hamilton
