Herman Melville
“To a sensitive being, pity is not seldom pain.”
Herman Melville, Bartleby, The Scrivener: A Story of Wall-street

Orhan Pamuk
“My unhappiness protects me from life.”
Orhan Pamuk

James Madison
“If Men were angels, no government would be necessary. If angels were to govern men, neither external nor internal controls on government would be necessary. In framing a government which is to be administered by men over men, the great difficulty lies in this: you must first enable the government to control the governed; and the next place, oblige it to control itself.”
James Madison

Mario Vargas Llosa
“Memory is a snare, pure and simple; it alters, it subtly rearranges the past to fit the present.”
Mario Vargas Llosa

Mario Vargas Llosa
“One can't fight with oneself, for this battle has only one loser.”
Mario Vargas Llosa, Aunt Julia and the Scriptwriter
