“...for in the world of the mad, time is not a continuum but a fluid, shifting place, relative to nothing.”
Lee Smith, Guests on Earth

Carl Sagan
“More recently, books, especially paperbacks, have been printed in massive and inexpensive editions. For the price of a modest meal you can ponder the decline and fall of the Roman Empire, the origin of species, the interpretation of dreams, the nature of things. Books are like seeds. They can lie dormant for centuries and then flower in the most unpromising soil.”
Carl Sagan, Cosmos

Harper Lee
“I need a watchman to tell me this is what a man says but this is what he means, to draw a line down the middle and say here is this justice and there is that justice and make me understand the difference.”
Harper Lee, Go Set a Watchman

“Our lives are made of moments strung together, life and death along a never-ending stream we call life.”
Leigh Calvez, The Hidden Lives of Owls: The Science and Spirit of Nature's Most Elusive Birds

Harper Lee

Harper Lee, Go Set a Watchman
