Tim Kreider
“One reason we rush so quickly to the vulgar satisfactions of judgment, and love to revel in our righteous outrage, is that it spares us from the impotent pain of empathy, and the harder, messier work of understanding.”
Tim Kreider, We Learn Nothing

Thich Nhat Hanh
“You must love in such a way that the person you love feels free.”
Thich Nhat Hanh

Philip G. Zimbardo
“Evil is knowing better, but willingly doing worse.”
Philip Zimbardo

Yuval Noah Harari
“One of history’s fews iron laws is that luxuries tend to become necessities and to spawn new obligations. Once people get used to a certain luxury, they take it for granted. Then they begin to count on it. Finally they reach a point where they can’t live without it. Over the few decades, we have invented countless time saving machines that are supposed to make like more relaxed - washing machines, vacuum cleaners, dishwashers, telephones, mobile phones, computers, email. We thought we were saving time; instead we revved up the treadmill of life to ten times its former speed and made our days more anxious and agitated.”
Yuval Noah Harari, Sapiens: A Brief History of Humankind

Tetsuko Kuroyanagi
“Having eyes, but not seeing beauty; having ears, but not hearing music; having minds, but not perceiving truth; having hearts that are never moved and therefore never set on fire. These are the things to fear, said the headmaster.”
Tetsuko Kuroyanagi, Totto-chan: The Little Girl at the Window
