Book cover for David Copperfield
Whether I shall turn out to be the hero of my own life, or whether that station will be held by anybody else, these pages must show.

Amy  Chua
“In a related context, Nigerian American novelist Teju Cole once tweeted, “The White Savior Industrial Complex is not about justice. It is about having a big emotional experience that validates privilege.”
Amy Chua, Political Tribes: Group Instinct and the Fate of Nations

C.S. Lewis
“Your patient has become humble; have you drawn his attention to the fact? All virtues are less formidable to us once the man is aware that he has them, but this is specially true of humility. Catch him at the moment when he is really poor in spirit and smuggle into his mind the gratifying reflection, 'By jove! I'm being humble!', and almost immediately pride—pride at his own humility—will appear. If he awakes to the danger and tries to smother this new form of pride, make him proud of his attempt—and so on, through as many stages a you please. But don't try this too long, for fear you may awake his sense of humour and proportion, in which case he will merely laugh at you and go to bed.”
C.S. Lewis, The Screwtape Letters

David Litt
“The secret to solving big problems, I learned, is knowing which little problems to ignore.”
David Litt, Thanks, Obama: My Hopey, Changey White House Years

Brandon Sanderson
“People are people. Whatever happens, they make communities, struggle for normalcy.”
Brandon Sanderson, Calamity

Marilynne Robinson
“Touch a limit of your understanding and it falls away, to reveal mystery upon mystery.”
Marilynne Robinson, The Givenness of Things: Essays
