Jo Walton
“Things need to be worth doing for themselves, not just for practice for some future time.”
Jo Walton, Among Others

Victoria Schwab
“Why did everyone have to ruin the quiet by asking questions? The truth was a disastrous thing.”
Victoria Schwab, This Savage Song

Jo Walton
“I hate it when people imply that people only read because they have nothing better to do.”
Jo Walton, Among Others

“It is not female egotism to say that the future of mankind may very well be ours to determine. It is a fact.”
Shirley Chisholm

John Corey Whaley
“If you could be any character on The Next Generation, who would you be?"
"Easy," Solomon said. "Data. For sure."
"That makes sense," Clark said.
"You?"
"I always liked Wesley Crusher."
"What?" Solomon was appalled. "Nobody likes Wesley Crusher."
"Why not?" Lisa asked.
"Because he's a total Mary Sue," Solomon said. "He's too perfect."
"But he's always saving the day," Clark argued. "Like, always."
"Exactly. He's just a talking deus ex machina. Everybody on the ship treats him like a dumb kid, then he saves them at the last minute and, every single time, they go right back to treating him like a dumb kid again. Do I need to remind you that the starship Enterprise is full of genius scientists and engineers? Why's this kid who can't get into Starfleet Academy smarter than all of them?"
"Good point," Clark said. "He's still my choice, though.”
John Corey Whaley, Highly Illogical Behavior
