Anu  Partanen
“the overarching ambition of Nordic societies during the course of the twentieth century, and into the twenty-first, has not been to socialize the economy at all, as is often mistakenly assumed. Rather the goal has been to free the individual from all forms of dependency within the family and in civil society: the poor from charity, wives from husbands, adult children from parents, and elderly parents from their children. The express purpose of this freedom is to allow all those human relationships to be unencumbered by ulterior motives and needs, and thus to be entirely free, completely authentic, and driven purely by love.”
Anu Partanen, The Nordic Theory of Everything: In Search of a Better Life

Thich Nhat Hanh
“When you understand, you cannot help but love. You cannot get angry.”
Thich Nhat Hanh, Peace Is Every Step: The Path of Mindfulness in Everyday Life

Émile Zola
“For a moment he was filled with envy, revolt, and bitter jealousy. He asked himself why he was poor whilst others were rich.”
Émile Zola, Delphi Complete Works of Emile Zola

Émile Zola
“The young household lived liked birds in a warm, secluded nest of moss.”
Émile Zola, Delphi Complete Works of Emile Zola

Agatha Christie
“When the sun shines you cannot see the moon," he said. "But when the sun is gone--ah, when the sun is gone.”
Agatha Christie, Death on the Nile
