Martin Luther King Jr.
“There is some good in the worst of us and some evil in the best of us. When we discover this, we are less prone to hate our enemies.”
Martin Luther King Jr.

Richard Llewellyn
“[T]here is no fence or hedge round Time that has gone. You can go back and have what you like if you remember it well enough.”
Richard Llewellyn, How Green Was My Valley

Marina Tsvetaeva
“There are books so alive that you're always afraid that while you weren't reading, the book has gone and changed, has shifted like a river.”
Marina Tsvetaeva

Michael   Dobbs
“Why be so bloody miserable when you can pick up a good book or watch a great television drama?”
Michael Dobbs

Alexander Chee
“The secret to being a rider in the hippodrome wasn't just that you must be agile, or that you must be good with horses, or that you must be strong and steady as the horse careens to the far end of the arena and back with you riding on its back. It was that you must hide inside your costume a little of a killer's heart.
The animal will be tender with you, and you with it, but the animal never forgets that when what it wants for survival requires your death, it will become unafraid to kill you. And so you cannot forget this, either.
It is, on reflection, good training to be a courtesan. A woman of any kind.”
Alexander Chee, The Queen of the Night
