Naomi Klein
“Clout is the values-free currency of the always-online age—both a substitute for hard cash as well as a conduit to it. Clout is a calculus not of what you do, but of how much bulk you-ness there is in the world. You get clout by playing the victim. You get clout by victimizing others. This is something that is understood by the left and the right. If influence sways, clout squats, taking up space for its own sake.”
Naomi Klein, Doppelganger: a Trip into the Mirror World

Robert Louis Stevenson
“It was on the moral side, and in my own person, that I learned to recognise the thorough and primitive duality of man; I saw that, of the two natures that contended in the field of my consciousness, even if I could rightly be said to be either, it was only because I was radically both;”
Robert Louis Stevenson, The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde

Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley
“So true it is, that man’s mind alone was the creator of all that was good or great to man, and that Nature herself was only his first minister.”
Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley, The Last Man

Monica Ali
“Sometime when people see a beautiful thing they want to destroy it. The thing make them feel ugly so they act ugly.”
Monica Ali, Brick Lane

“Once you learn the maze or see the labyrinth whole, then, elaborate chaos is transformed into pattern.”
Penelope Reed Doob, The Idea of the Labyrinth from Classical Antiquity through the Middle Ages
