Arthur Miller
“Why am I trying to become what I don’t want to be … when all I want is out there, waiting for me the minute I say I know who I am.”
Arthur Miller, Death of a Salesman

Poul Anderson
“So much American science fiction is parochial -- not as true now as it was years ago, but the assumption is one culture in the future, more or less like ours, and with the same ideals, the same notions of how to do things, just bigger and flashier technology. Well, you know darn well it doesn't work that way...”
Poul Anderson

Amos Bronson Alcott
“Devotees of grammatical studies have not been distinguished for any very remarkable felicities of expression”
Amos Bronson Alcott

Stuart Hall
“Against the urgency of people dying in the streets, what in God's name is the point of cultural studies?...At that point, I think anybody who is into cultural studies seriously as an intellectual practice, must feel, on their pulse, its ephemerality, its insubstantiality, how little it registers, how little we've been able to change anything or get anybody to do anything. If you don't feel that as one tension in the work that you are doing, theory has let you off the hook.”
Stuart Hall

Terrance Dicks
“The Master: The cosmos without the Doctor scarcely bears thinking about.”
Terrance Dicks, Doctor Who: The Five Doctors
