“It seems to us that there is only one answer to this question: we must recognize, and loudly proclaim, that everyone, whatever his grade in the old society, whether strong or weak, capable or incapable, has, before everything, the right to live, and that society is bound to share among all, without exception, the means of existence it has at its disposal. We must acknowledge this, and proclaim it aloud, and act upon it.”
Pyotr Kropotkin, The Conquest of Bread

“Whenever I hear a four-syllable word I get skeptical, because I want to make sure you can’t say it in monosyllables.”
Noam Chomsky, Understanding Power: The Indispensable Chomsky

Emma Vieceli, Life Is Strange Vol. 3: Strings

Leonard Cohen
“Fare thee well my nightingale
I lived but to be near you
Though you are singing somewhere still
I can no longer hear you”
Leonard Cohen, The Flame

Charlie Jane Anders
“The only thing that makes life tolerable is that people forget most of the stupid things I say as soon as I finish saying them.”
