Sarah Vowell
“I suspect that the day a person gives up on the Geneva Convention is the day a person gives up on the human race.”
Sarah Vowell, Assassination Vacation

Sarah Vowell
“Whether or not the United States has saved the world, it did save France a time or two. When the American Expeditionary Forces commanded by General John J. Pershing came to the aid of France during World War I, they marched into Paris on July 4, 1917, heading straight for Picpus Cemetery. Colonel Charles E. Stanton, whose uncle had been Abraham Lincoln’s secretary of war, addressed the French people while standing before Lafayette’s tomb. “America has joined forces with the Allied Powers,” he said, “and what we have of blood and treasure are yours. Therefore it is that with loving pride we drape the colors in tribute of respect to this citizen of your great republic. And here and now, in the presence of the illustrious dead, we pledge our hearts and our honor in carrying this war to a successful issue. Lafayette, we are here.” •”
Sarah Vowell, Lafayette in the Somewhat United States

Janet Evanovich
“Money isn’t everything.’‘The only people who say that are people who have enough money to pay the rent.”
Janet Evanovich, Notorious Nineteen

Sarah Vowell
“The names of the compact's signers, including Anne Hutchinson's husband, Will, are listed below the text. Here lies the deepest reason why the Woman's Healing Garden strikes me as so forlorn - that Hutchinson is remembered here by pink echinacea in bloom instead of on the Portsmouth Compact plaque, where she belongs. All of the signers were there because of her, because she stood up to Massachusetts and they stood with her. But all the signers were men. Anne Hutchinson wasn't allowed to sign the founding document of the colony she founded.”
Sarah Vowell, The Wordy Shipmates

Janet Evanovich
“That’s just terrible. Obviously the woman needed a cannoli. I don’t know what this world’s coming to when you get arrested for needing a cannoli.”
Janet Evanovich, Top Secret Twenty-one
