Katherine Addison
“He stared at me as if I’d told him I could hear fishes singing.”
Katherine Addison, The Witness for the Dead

Jane Austen
“Facts are such horrid things!”
Jane Austen, Lady Susan

“To be rendered powerless does not destroy your humanity. Your resilience is your humanity. The only people who lose their humanity are those who believe they have the right to render another human being powerless. They are the weak. To yield and not break, that is incredible strength.”
Hannah Gadsby

Terry Pratchett
“Because stories are important.
People think that stories are shaped by people. In fact, it's the other way around.
Stories exist independently of their players. If you know that, the knowledge is power.
Stories, great flapping ribbons of shaped space-time, have been blowing and uncoiling around the universe since the beginning of time. And they have evolved. The weakest have died and the strongest have survived and they have grown fat on the retelling...stories, twisting and blowing through the darkness.”
Terry Pratchett, Witches Abroad

Guy Debord
“A lie that can no longer be challenged becomes insane.”
Guy Debord, The Society of the Spectacle
