“que d’autres enfants que les nôtres puissent s’enchanter de réciter : « Tâche que les tasses de thé tachetées que tu as achetées soient attachées et tassées » !”
François Hauter, Le bonheur d'être français (Documents)

“During the eleventh century, men at the court of Song Dynasty China came to imagine in a new way the political entity to which they belonged. They started to articulate with far greater precision its spatial extent – which they now saw as bounded by natural topographic features as well as by the historical Great Wall – while simultaneously de-emphasizing an older theory of sovereignty premised on the idea of universal empire.”
Nicolas Tackett, The Origins of the Chinese Nation: Song China and the Forging of an East Asian World Order

Nate Silver
“poker is an incredibly mathematical game that depends on making probabilistic judgments amid uncertainty, the same skills that are important in any type of prediction.”
Nate Silver, The Signal and the Noise: The Art and Science of Prediction

Matthew Amster-Burton
“The train gives off an earsplitting insect hum. It seems like you’re watching something physically impossible, like a person lifting a house, or hearing a joke so funny the laughter threatens to rip you apart, and then, with a puff of air, it’s over. When”
Matthew Amster-Burton, Pretty Good Number One: An American Family Eats Tokyo

John Pomfret
“I liked the way it felt to speak Chinese—the elegant rise and fall of the tones, the sensuous way my tongue flitted about my mouth and the economy of a language that needed very few words to say a lot. Speaking good French demands control of one’s lips; American English relies on an open mouth; but Chinese can be spoken perfectly even through clenched teeth. “Picture your tongue as a butterfly,” one of my instructors would say, and there it would be, flapping against my mouth and banging against my teeth as I sought to harness it and speak Chinese.”
John Pomfret, Chinese Lessons: Five Classmates and the Story of the New China
