Seth Grahame-Smith
“If you're willing to listen, every so often, life—or God or the Universe or whatever you prefer to call it—lets us know that it's paying attention”
Seth Grahame-Smith

Thomas Sowell
“A society that puts equality—in the sense of equality of outcome—ahead of freedom will end up with neither equality nor freedom. The use of force to achieve equality will destroy freedom, and the force, introduced for good purposes, will end up in the hands of people who use it to promote their own interests.”
Thomas Sowell, The Quest for Cosmic Justice

Jasper Fforde
“Staying awake in the winter requires considerable pantry, a lot of luck, warm clothes, and several dozen good books.”
Jasper Fforde, Early Riser

Iain Cameron Williams
“Infinity is as far as your imagination stretches, and then some.' Iain Cameron Williams, 2018”
Iain Cameron Williams

Russell Brand
“Addiction is when natural biological imperatives, like the need for food, sex, relaxation or status, become prioritised to the point of destructiveness. It is exacerbated by a culture that understandably exploits this mechanic as it's a damn good way to sell Mars bars and Toyotas.”
Russell Brand, Recovery: Freedom from Our Addictions
