Book cover for Mistborn Trilogy (Mistborn, #1-3)
A man can only lead when others accept him as their leader, and he has only as much authority as his subjects give to him. All of the brilliant ideas in the world cannot save your kingdom if no one will listen to them.”

John M. Barry
“The two most important questions in science are “What can I know?” and “How can I know it?”
John M. Barry, The Great Influenza: The Epic Story of the Deadliest Plague in History

John M. Barry
“The preservation of morale itself became an aim. For if morale faltered, all else might as well. So free speech trembled.”
John M. Barry, The Great Influenza: The Epic Story of the Deadliest Plague in History

Miguel de Cervantes Saavedra
“Remember that there are two kinds of beauty: one of the soul and the other of the body. That of the soul displays its radiance in intelligence, in chastity, in good conduct, in generosity, and in good breeding, and all these qualities may exist in an ugly man. And when we focus our attention upon that beauty, not upon the physical, love generally arises with great violence and intensity. I am well aware that I am not handsome, but I also know that I am not deformed, and it is enough for a man of worth not to be a monster for him to be dearly loved, provided he has those spiritual endowments I have spoken of.”
Miguel Cervantes

John M. Barry
“Desperate efforts were being made to protect troops from the disease, or at least prevent complications. Germicidal solutions were sprayed into the mouths and noses of troops. Soldiers were ordered to use germicidal mouthwash and to gargle twice a day. Iodine in glycerin was tried in an attempt to disinfect mouths. Vaseline containing menthol was used in nasal passages, mouths washed with liquid albolene.”
John M. Barry, The Great Influenza: The Epic Story of the Deadliest Plague in History

Eleanor Roosevelt
“The purpose of life is to live it, to taste experience to the utmost, to reach out eagerly and without fear for newer and richer experience.”
Eleanor Roosevelt
