Jim Mattis
“If you haven't read hundreds of books, you are functionally illiterate, and you will be incompetent, because your personal experiences alone aren't broad enough to sustain you.”
Jim Mattis, Call Sign Chaos: Learning to Lead

Ursula K. Le Guin
“I don’t know what ‘human nature’ is. Maybe leaving descriptions of what we wipe out is part of human nature.”
Ursula K. Le Guin, The Word for World Is Forest

Ingeborg Bachmann
“Reading is a vice which can replace all other vices or temporarily take their place in more intensely helping people live, it is a debauchery, a consuming addiction. No, I don’t take any drugs, I take books.”
Ingeborg Bachmann, Malina

Robert Louis Stevenson
“O, man, if you would only take one point of the compass and let me take any other, it would be the best for both of us.”
Robert Louis Stevenson, Kidnapped

Claire Keegan

Claire Keegan, Small Things Like These
