Nicole Galland
“Suddenly Joan was terrified. She would fail at this. He would scoff at her and lose interest, and then Sander would also scoff, to stay in Bacon’s good graces, so that Bacon would continue to seek patrons for him. They shared entire worlds she had no entry to, and never would: cabals and social circles Sander was welcomed into because he was the celebrated boy-actor, because he ravished and was ravished by those who granted entry to those circles, because he was ambitious to maintain his elevated status. A month ago she’d have been nervous only for losing the opportunity to study with Francis Bacon but now she feared losing Sander.”
Nicole galland, Boy

“No president in American history has ever been removed from office by way of a Senate impeachment trial. A two-thirds vote requirement for conviction requires a bipartisan buy-in, which will be very difficult to achieve unless there is significant popular support in the nation. Those conditions likely existed during the latter months of the Watergate scandal of President Richard Nixon, but he resigned in August 1974, thereby ending the impeachment process.”
Donald A. Zinman

“Trump unfurled a giant banner high on the side of his building, directly facing the rival building. "Your views aren't so great, are they? We have the real Central Park views and address. Best Wishes, The Donald." For perhaps the first and only time, the New Yorker printed the words: "Trump has a point.”
Deirdre Mask, The Address Book: What Street Addresses Reveal About Identity, Race, Wealth, and Power

“Both Bellcore (the Bell Telephone research company in Livingstone, New Jersey) and Philips (the company that owns Polygram, U2’s label) have set up crude working prototypes of home music delivery systems by hooking up recordable CD players to fiber-optic telephone lines.”
Bill Flanagan, U2 at the End of the World

Martin MacInnes
“I questioned what else I had already missed so far, in my own life, simply through the limits of my character.”
Martin MacInnes, In Ascension
