Simone Weil
“If we know in what way society is unbalanced, we must do what we can to add weight to the lighter scale ... we must have formed a conception of equilibrium and be ever ready to change sides like justice, 'that fugitive from the camp of conquerors'.”
Simone Weil, Gravity and Grace

Stuart Hall
“I have never worked on race and ethnicity as a kind of subcategory; I have always worked on the whole social formation which is racialised”
Stuart Hall

“Any form of art is a form of power; it has impact, it can affect change – it can not only move us, it makes us move.”
Ossie Davis

Ursula K. Le Guin
“We're each of us alone, to be sure. What can you do but hold your hand out in the dark?”
Ursula K. Le Guin, The Wind's Twelve Quarters, Volume 1

Anita Desai
“Isn't it strange how life won't flow, like a river, but moves in jumps, as if it were held back by locks that are opened now and then to let it jump forwards in a kind of flood?”
Anita Desai
