“It is the misanthrope who alone has clarity.By standing outside the huddles of man,he sees a lot,and what he often sees is the evidence that people are not as smart as dogs think they are.And he wants to see it time and again.In the fog of ambiguities and mysteries,he desperately searches for truths because truth usually shows humanity in a poor light”
Manu Joseph, The Illicit Happiness of Other People

“The tragedy of mediocrity is that even mediocre people shake their heads and mull over how standard are falling.
- Serious Men”
Manu Joseph

Salman Rushdie
“Ignorantly is how we all fall in love; for it is a kind of fall. Closing our eyes, we leap from that cliff in hope of a soft landing. Nor is it always soft; but still, without that leap nobody comes to life.”
Salman Rushdie, The Moor's Last Sigh

David  Mitchell
“Faith, the least exclusive club on Earth, has the craftiest doorman. Every time I've stepped through its wide-open doorway, I find myself stepping out on the street again.”
David Mitchell, Cloud Atlas

Jared Diamond
“...neither life nor history is an enterprise for those who seek simplicity and consistency.”
