Maria Semple
“I'm not too good when exposed to people”
Maria Semple, Where'd You Go, Bernadette

Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie
“If you don't understand, ask questions. If you're uncomfortable about asking questions, say you are uncomfortable about asking questions and then ask anyway. It's easy to tell when a question is coming from a good place. Then listen some more. Sometimes people just want to feel heard. Here's to possibilities of friendship and connection and understanding.”
Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie, Americanah

Adam Kay
“Her extremely posh eight year-old asks her a question about the economy (!), and before she answers it, she asks her extremely posh five year-old "Do you know what the economy is, darling?"

"Yes mummy, it's the part of the plane that's terrible".

This is how revolutions start.”
Adam Kay, This is Going to Hurt: Secret Diaries of a Junior Doctor

Yuval Noah Harari
“History is something that very few people have been doing while everyone else was ploughing fields and carrying water buckets.”
Yuval Noah Harari, Sapiens: A Brief History of Humankind

Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie
“But of course it makes sense because we are Third Worlders and Third Worlders are forward-looking, we like things to be new, because our best is still ahead, while in the West their best is already past and so they have to make a fetish of that past.Remember this is our newly middle-class world. We haven’t completed the first cycle of prosperity, before going back to the beginning again, to drink milk from the cow’s udder.”
Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie, Americanah
