“If they don't give you a seat at the table, bring a folding chair.”
Shirley Chisholm

Dawn Powell
“Satire is people as they are; romanticism, people as they would like to be; realism, people as they seem with their insides left out.”
Dawn Powell

Peter Brook
“The closeness of reality and the distance of myth, because if there is no distance you aren't amazed, and if there is no closeness you aren't moved.”
Peter Brook, the stage director describing his approach to storytelling

Douglas Adams
“The major problem—one of the major problems, for there are several—one of the many major problems with governing people is that of whom you get to do it; or rather of who manages to get people to let them do it to them.
To summarize: it is a well-known fact that those people who must want to rule people are, ipso facto, those least suited to do it.
To summarize the summary: anyone who is capable of getting themselves made President should on no account be allowed to do the job.”
Douglas Adams, The Restaurant at the End of the Universe

Bertolt Brecht
“Motto"

In the dark times
Will there also be singing?
Yes, there will also be singing.
About the dark times.”
Bertolt Brecht
