Don DeLillo
“Modern communications don't shrink the world, they make it bigger. Faster planes make it bigger. They give us more, they connect more things. The world isn't shrinking at all. People who say it's shrinking have never flown Air Zaire in a tropical storm. No wonder people go to school to learn stretching and bending. The world is so big and complicated we don't trust ourselves to figure out anything on our own. No wonder people read books that tell them how to run, walk and sit. We're trying to keep up with the world, the size of it, the complications.”
Don DeLillo, The Names

Zaman Ali
“Each thinking mind is a political mind.”
Zaman Ali, HUMANITY Understanding Reality and Inquiring Good

Brian Moore
“Love isn't an act, it's a whole life.”
Brian Moore

Ellen Ullman
“This is what makes them good engineers. Perfectionism: incinerating perfectionism.”
Ellen Ullman, The Bug

William Faulkner
“IT WAS JUST NOON that Sunday morning when the sheriff reached the jail with Lucas Beauchamp though the whole town (the whole county too for that matter) had known since the night before that Lucas had killed a white man.”
William Faulkner, Intruder in the Dust
