Lewis Shaw

“I closed my eyes and listened carefully for the descendants of Sputnik, even now circling the earth, gravity their only tie to the planet. Lonely metal souls in the unimpeded darkness of space, they meet, pass each other, and part, never to meet again. No words passing between them. No promises to keep.”
― Haruki Murakami, Sputnik Sweetheart

“News is something somebody doesn't want printed; all else is advertising.”
― William Randolph Hearst

“One day I will find the right words, and they will be simple.”
― Jack Kerouac, The Dharma Bums

“For after all, what is there behind, except money? Money for the right kind of education, money for influential friends, money for leisure and peace of mind, money for trips to Italy. Money writes books, money sells them. Give me not righteousness, O lord, give me money, only money.”
― George Orwell, Keep the Aspidistra Flying
