Ward Moore
“Time, yes … We waste it or save it or use it—one would almost think we mastered it instead of the other way around. Yet are all novels really a waste of the precious dimension? Perhaps you underestimate the value of invention.”
Ward Moore, Bring the Jubilee

“The world doesn’t get better on its own. It gets better because people make it better: penny by penny, vote by vote, and one lesson at a time. So: Start where you are. Use what you have. Help who you can.”
Greg Wilson, Teaching Tech Together

Primo Levi
“Since it is difficult to distinguish true prophets from false, it is as well to regard all prophets with suspicion”
Primo Levi, If This Is a Man / The Truce

Peter De Vries
“Nostalgia ain't what it used to be.”
Peter De Vries

Kelly Sue DeConnick
“What every girl should know: Your vagina is disgusting. It smells like the underside of a kangaroo pouch and he doesn't want to touch you because of the grossness. But thankfully, NEW brand douche, perfected by a leading gynecologist, gently cleanses and refreshes, making you feel feminine and special. Because what's more special than a vage filled with vinegar and chemical daisies? Also available in SPICY CINNAMON TACO, for the girl adventurer.”
Kelly Sue DeConnick, Bitch Planet, Vol. 1: Extraordinary Machine
