Erik Larson
“It is slothful not to compress your thoughts,” he said.”
Erik Larson, The Splendid and the Vile: A Saga of Churchill, Family, and Defiance During the Blitz

Jan Morris
“One of the prizes of old age is its release from competition.”
Jan Morris, Allegorizings

Olga Tokarczuk
“Newspapers rely on keeping us in a constant state of anxiety, on diverting our emotions away from the things that really matter to us. Why should I yield to their power and let them tell me what to think?”
Olga Tokarczuk, Drive Your Plow Over the Bones of the Dead

Olga Tokarczuk
“Winter mornings are made of steel; they have a metallic taste and sharp edges. On a Wednesday in January, at seven in the morning, it’s plain to see that the world was not made for Man, and definitely not for his comfort or pleasure.”
Olga Tokarczuk, Drive Your Plow Over the Bones of the Dead

John Fitzgerald Kennedy
“... let us not be blind to our differences, but let us also direct attention to our common interests and the means by which those differences can be resolved. And if we cannot end now our differences, at least we can help make the world safe for diversity. For, in the final analysis, our most basic common link is that we all inhabit this small planet. We all breathe the same air. We all cherish our children’s future. And we are all mortal." - President John Fitzgerald Kennedy (June 10th, 1963)”
John F. Kennedy
