James Baldwin
“The power of the white world is threatened whenever a black man refuses to accept the white world's definitions.”
James Baldwin

Hernan Diaz
“During their lessons, Lorimer often reminded his student that his remarkable talent with the scalpel would amount to nothing if the knife was not held by a loving hand guided by a truth-seeking eye.

A naturalist should look at the world with warm affection, if not ardent love.”
Hernan Diaz, In the Distance
