Maria Ressa
“If you're lucky, you realize early on that each decision you make answers a question that all of us muddle through: how to build meaning in our lives. Meaning is not something you stumble across or what someone gives you; you build it through every choice you make, the commitments you choose, the people you love, and the values you hold dear.”
Maria Ressa, How to Stand Up to a Dictator

Daniel Immerwahr
“At various times, inhabitants of the U.S. Empire have been shot, shelled, starved, interned, dispossessed, tortured, and experimented on. What they haven't been, by and large, is seen.”
Daniel Immerwahr, How to Hide an Empire: A History of the Greater United States

Édouard Glissant
“Generalization is totalitarian . . . . Either the other is assimilated, or else it is annihilated. That is the whole principle of generaliza-tion and its entire process.”
Édouard Glissant

Édouard Glissant
“To move from the oral to the written is to immobilise the body, to take control (to possess it).”
Édouard Glissant, Caribbean Discourse: Selected Essays

Maria Ressa
“Without facts, you can’t have truth. Without truth, you can’t have trust. Without all three, we have no shared reality, and democracy as we know it—and all meaningful human endeavors—are dead.”
Maria Ressa, How to Stand Up to a Dictator: A Nobel Laureate's Fight Against Authoritarianism -- Includes an Introduction by Amal Clooney
