Spider Robinson
“This is what it is to be human: to see the essential existential futility of all action, all striving -- and to act, to strive. This is what it is to be human: to reach forever beyond your grasp. This is what it is to be human: to live forever or die trying. This is what it is to be human: to perpetually ask the unanswerable questions, in the hope that the asking of them will somehow hasten the day when they will be answered. This is what it is to be human: to strive in the face of the certainty of failure. This is what it is to be human: to persist.”
Spider Robinson

Jane M. Healy
“How can children bombarded from birth by noise, frenetic schedules, and the helter-skelter caretaking of a fast-paced adult world learn to analyze, reflect, ponder? How can they use quiet inner conversation to build personal realities, sharpen and extend their visual reasoning?”
Jane M. Healy, Endangered Minds: Why Children Don’t Think and What We Can Do About It

George Selden
“I guess I'm just feeling Septemberish.”
George Selden

Alice Hoffman
“I'm at the point where going forward is easier than going back.”
Alice Hoffman , Green Witch

J.D. Salinger
“I was half in love with her by the time we sat down. That’s the thing about girls. Every time they do something pretty, even if they’re not much to look at, or even if they’re sort of stupid, you fall half in love with them, and then you never know where the hell you are.”
J.D. Salinger, The Catcher in the Rye
