Book cover for Too Much and Never Enough: How My Family Created the World's Most Dangerous Man
Donald today is much as he was at three years old: incapable of growing, learning, or evolving, unable to regulate his emotions, moderate his responses, or take in and synthesize information.

Yuval Noah Harari
“As we have seen again and again throughout history, in a completely free information fight, truth tends to lose. To tilt the balance in favour of truth, networks must develop and maintain strong self-correcting mechanisms that reward truth telling. These self-correcting mechanisms are costly, but if you want to get the truth, you must invest in them.”
Yuval Noah Harari, Nexus: A Brief History of Information Networks from the Stone Age to AI

Jonathan Ancer
“The National Party (NP) tried to make its nakedly racist system seem palatable with the phrase 'separate development' - perhaps Apartheid's greatest lie. The truth was that in Verwoerd's magic kingdom, Snow White carried a sjambok and beat the shit out of anyone that failed the pencil test.”
Jonathan Ancer, BULLSH!T: 50 Fibs That Made South Africa

Arundhati Roy
“The world was too ridiculous for me to remain too sad for too long.”
Arundhati Roy, Mother Mary Comes to Me

“She was my shelter and my storm.”
Arundhati Roy, Mother Mary Comes to Me

Arundhati Roy
“Nothing made me forget the world like reading did. Nothing made me think about the world like reading did. Nothing else filled me up. Nothing else emptied me out. Sentences and paragraphs would drift through my head like clouds.”
Arundhati Roy, Mother Mary Comes to Me
