We’d all like to think we’d be one of the people who gave up their lifejackets and waved a stoic good-bye from the slanting deck of the titanic, someone who jumped in front of a bullet for a stranger, or turned and raced back up the stairs of one of the towers, in search of someone who needed help rather than our own security. But you just don’t know for sure if, when things fall apart, you’ll think safety first, or if safety will be the last thing on your mind.”
― Huntley Fitzpatrick, My Life Next Door

“I saw the Cloud, though I did not foresee the Storm.”
― Daniel Defoe, Moll Flanders
