Stella Gibbons
“She is a character in a novel who reads the other characters as characters and rewrites them as people.”
Stella Gibbons, Cold Comfort Farm

Stella Gibbons
“I found, after spending ten years as a journalist, learning to say exactly what I meant in short sentences, that I must learn, if I was to achieve literature and favourable reviews, to write as though I were not quite sure about what I meant but was jolly well going to say something all the same in sentences as long as possible.”
Stella Gibbons, Cold Comfort Farm

Milton Friedman
“It's always so attractive to be able to do good at somebody else's expense”
Milton Friedman

Lauren Groff
“How slow the final flowering of good intentions can be, the poisonous full bloom taking place centuries beyond the scope of the original life.”
Lauren Groff, Matrix

Taylor Caldwell

I have yet to hear of a nation that ever rejected a war.”
Taylor Caldwell, Captains and the Kings
