Ben Macintyre
“Eccentricity is one of those English traits that look like frailty but mask a concealed strength; individuality disguised as oddity.”
Ben Macintyre, A Spy Among Friends: Kim Philby and the Great Betrayal

Eric Ambler
“Yet, when these facts are seen side by side with other facts in the case, it is difficult not to become lost in superstitious awe. Their very absurdity seems to prohibit the use of the words 'chance' and 'coincidence.' For the sceptic there remains only one consolation: if there should be such a thing as superhuman Law, it is administered with sub-human inefficiency.”
Eric Ambler, The Mask of Dimitrios

Alan Furst
“There's a French saying, ‘Où le Dieu a vous semé, il faut savoir fleurir.’ Let's see, ‘Wherever God has planted you, you must know how to flower'...”
Alan Furst, The Spies of Warsaw

Nick Bilton
“So, your kids must love the iPad?” I asked Mr. [Steve] Jobs, trying to change the subject. The company’s first tablet was just hitting the shelves. “They haven’t used it,” he told me. “We limit how much technology our kids use at home.”
(Nytimes article, Sept. 10, 2014)”

“The press pass and the a title of “journalist” had been replaced by a smart phone and a Twitter account.”
Nick Bilton, Hatching Twitter: A True Story of Money, Power, Friendship, and Betrayal
