Xiran Jay Zhao
“Violence is not the answer, they say! But what do they count as violence, pray tell? Do they count it when landlords buy up all housing with their existing wealth and then grow even wealthier off of tenants they would not hesitate to throw into the cold? Is it not violence when a hospital turns away a patient for being unable to pay for treatment? Is it not violence when a laborer breaks his body in a factory, only to receive a mere fraction of the profits from his work?”
Xiran Jay Zhao, Heavenly Tyrant

“Cats are more effective than any other medicine out there.”
Syou Ishida, We'll Prescribe You a Cat

John Green
“People who are treated as less than fully human by the social order are more susceptible to tuberculosis but it’s not because of their moral codes or choices or genetics, it’s because they are treated as less than fully human by the social order.”
John Green, Everything Is Tuberculosis: The History and Persistence of Our Deadliest Infection

“The new-found prosperity of American workers allowed them to buy goods which had previously been our of their reach. Peggy Terry overheard 'a woman saying on her bus that she hoped the war didn't end until she got her refrigerator paid for. An old man hit her over the head with an umbrella'.”
Lizzie Collingham, The Taste of War: World War Two and the Battle for Food

“The most positive thing the Chinese authorities could say about the Americans was that they weren't the British.”
Andrew Coe
