Richard Wright
“One walks along a street and strays unknowingly from one's path; one then looks up and suddenly for those familiar landmarks of orientation, and, seeing none, one feels lost. Panic drapes the look of the world in a strangeness, and the more one stares blankly at the world, the stranger it looks, the more hideously frightening it seems. There is then born in one a wild, hot wish to project out upon the alien world the world that one is seeking. This wish is a hunger for power, to be in command of one's self.”
Richard Wright, The Outsider

Richard Wright
“Cross felt that at the heart of all political movements the concept of the basic inequality of man was enthroned and practiced, and the skill of politicians consisted in how cleverly they hid this elementary truth and gained votes by pretending the contrary”
Richard Wright, The Outsider

Khaled Hosseini
“Not a word passes between us, not because we have nothing to say, but because we don't have to say anything”
Khaled Hosseini, The Kite Runner

Khaled Hosseini
“When you kill a man, you steal a life. You steal his wife's right to a husband, rob his children of a father. When you tell a lie, you steal someone's right to the truth. When you cheat, you steal the right to fairness.”
Khaled Hosseini, The Kite Runner

Richard Wright
“...to see was not to control, that self-understanding was far short of self-mastery. He was afraid of himself.”
Richard Wright, The Outsider
