Frances Hodgson Burnett
“Much more surprising things can happen to anyone who, when a disagreeable or discouraged thought comes into his mind, just has the sense to remember in time and push it out by putting in an agreeable, determinedly courageous one. Two things cannot be in one place.”
Frances Hodgson Burnett, The Secret Garden

Ernest Hemingway
“When spring came, even the false spring, there were no problems except where to be happiest. The only thing that could spoil a day was people and if you could keep from making engagements, each day had no limits. People were always the limiters of happiness except for the very few that were as good as spring itself.”
Ernest Hemingway, A Moveable Feast

Patti Smith
“What will happen to us?" I asked. "There will always be us," he answered.”
Patti Smith, Just Kids

Oscar Wilde
“To live is the rarest thing in the world. Most people exist, that is all”
Oscar Wilde, The Soul of Man Under Socialism

Noam Chomsky
“Within the reigning social order, the general public must remain an object of manipulation, not a participant in thought, debate, and decision.”
Noam Chomsky, Necessary Illusions: Thought Control in Democratic Societies
