John  Green
“Every year, many, many stupid people graduate from college. And if they can do it, so can you.”
― John Green

Marcel Proust
“The highest praise of God consists in the denial of him by the atheist who finds creation so perfect that it can dispense with a creator.”
― Marcel Proust

“I have become Death, the destroyer of worlds.”
― Bhagavad Gita, or Song of the Lord, The Bhagavad Gita

Naomi Wolf
“Sadly, the signals that allow men and women to find the partners who most please them are scrambled by the sexual insecurity initiated by beauty thinking. A woman who is self-conscious can't relax to let her sensuality come into play. If she is hungry she will be tense. If she is "done up" she will be on the alert for her reflection in his eyes. If she is ashamed of her body, its movement will be stilled. If she does not feel entitled to claim attention, she will not demand that airspace to shine in. If his field of vision has been boxed in by "beauty"--a box continually shrinking--he simply will not see her, his real love, standing right before him.”
― Naomi Wolf, The Beauty Myth: How Images of Beauty Are Used Against Women
