Emily St. John Mandel
“Hell is the absence of the people you long for.”
Emily St. John Mandel, Station Eleven

Alvin Toffler
“You’ve got to think about big things while you’re doing small things, so that all the small things go in the right direction.”
Alvin Toffler

Alvin Toffler
“Science fiction is held in low regard as a branch of literature, and perhaps it deserves this critical contempt. But if we view it as a kind of sociology of the future, rather than as literature, science fiction has immense value as a mind-stretching force for the creation of the habit of anticipation. Our children should be studying Arthur C. Clarke, William Tenn, Robert Heinlein, Ray Bradbury and Robert Sheckley, not because these writers can tell them about rocket ships and time machines but, more important, because they can lead young minds through an imaginative exploration of the jungle of political, social, psychological, and ethical issues that will confront these children as adults.”
Alvin Toffler, Future Shock

Norton Juster
“...it's not just learning that's important. It's learning what to do with what you learn and learning why you learn things that matters.”
Norton Juster

“You see, to tall men I'm a midget, and to short men I'm a giant; to the skinny ones I'm a fat man, and to the fat ones I'm a thin man.”
Norton Juster, The Phantom Tollbooth
