Pico Iyer
“A person susceptible to "wanderlust" is not so much addicted to movement as committed to transformation.”
Pico Iyer

Douglas Adams
“This is rather as if you imagine a puddle waking up one morning and thinking, 'This is an interesting world I find myself in — an interesting hole I find myself in — fits me rather neatly, doesn't it? In fact it fits me staggeringly well, must have been made to have me in it!' This is such a powerful idea that as the sun rises in the sky and the air heats up and as, gradually, the puddle gets smaller and smaller, frantically hanging on to the notion that everything's going to be alright, because this world was meant to have him in it, was built to have him in it; so the moment he disappears catches him rather by surprise. I think this may be something we need to be on the watch out for.”
Douglas Adams, The Salmon of Doubt: Hitchhiking the Galaxy One Last Time

Jane Austen
“I cannot speak well enough to be unintelligible.”
Jane Austen, Northanger Abbey

Liu Cixin
“Young people are all the same. The more books you read, the more confused you become.”
Liu Cixin, The Three-Body Problem

Isaac Asimov
“Even as a youngster, though, I could not bring myself to believe that if knowledge presented danger, the solution was ignorance.”
Isaac Asimov, The Caves of Steel
