D.H. Lawrence
“Was it just that? She was to be content to weave a steady life with him, all one fabric, but perhaps brocaded with the occasional flower of an adventure. But how could she know what she would feel next year? How could one ever know? How could one say Yes? for years and years? The little yes, gone on a breath! Why should one be pinned down by that butterfly word? Of course it had to flutter away and be gone, to be followed by other yes's and no's! Like the straying of butterflies.”
D.H. Lawrence, Lady Chatterley's Lover

Anderson Cooper
“The farther you go...the harder it is to return. The world has many edges and it's easy to fall off.”
Anderson Cooper, Dispatches from the Edge: A Memoir of War, Disasters, and Survival

Gertrude Stein
“We are always the same age inside. ”
Gertrude Stein

Frédéric Bastiat
“You compare the nation to a parched piece of land and the tax to a life-giving rain. So be it. But you should also ask yourself where this rain comes from, and whether it is not precisely the tax that draws the moisture from the soil and dries it up. You should also ask yourself further whether the soil receives more of this precious water from the rain than it loses by the evaporation?”
Frédéric Bastiat

Orhan Pamuk
“I read a book one day and my whole life was changed.”
Orhan Pamuk, The New Life
