“Aesop was writing for the tortoise market. Axiomatically, hares have no time to read. They are too busy winning the game. The propaganda goes all the other way, but only because it is the tortoise who is in need of consolation. Like the meek who are going to inherit the earth.”
― Anita Brookner, Hotel du Lac

“If they drive God from the earth, we shall shelter Him underground.”
― Fyodor Dostoevsky

“Chuck away your decency and make more money' - that's what women say. 'Chuck your decency, suck the blacking off the boss's boots and buy me a better fur coat than the woman next door'.”
― George Orwell, Keep the Aspidistra Flying
