Yanis Varoufakis
“On the one hand, you were appalled by the idea that some kids cry themselves to sleep because they are hungry. On the other, you were thoroughly convinced (like all children) that your toys, your clothes, and your house were all rightfully yours. Our minds automatically equate “I have X” with “I deserve X.” When our eyes fall on those who lack the bare necessities, we immediately sympathize and express outrage that they do not have enough, but we do not for a moment allow ourselves to think that their deprivation may be the product of the same process that led to our affluence.”
Yanis Varoufakis, Talking to My Daughter About the Economy: or, How Capitalism Works—and How It Fails

Felix Salten
“I have to be alone,” he replied. He had wanted to say it in a soothing way, but it sounded hard. He heard it himself. Faline looked at him and quietly asked, “Do you still love me?” Bambi did not hesitate and answered, “I don’t know.” She went calmly away and left him alone.”

Hideaki Sena, Parasite Eve

“When she considered the historical context, Rosemary thought their presence in the shop made for a rather odd tableau: a Harmagian (an aging son of a former empire), an Aandrisk (whose people had moderated the talks that granted independence to Harmagian colonies and ultimately founded the GC) and two Humans (a meager species that would’ve been ripe for the picking if they had been discovered during the days of Harmagian conquest). All standing together, amicably discussing the sale of soap. Time was a curious equalizer.”
Becky Chambers, The Long Way to a Small, Angry Planet

Felix Salten
“Yes, life was hard and full of danger. Let it bring whatever it wants, he would learn somehow to bear all of it.”
Felix Salten, Bambi: A Life in the Woods by Felix Salten: A Tale of Innocence, Growth, and the Natural World
