Sasha Sagan
“What an astonishing thing a book is. It’s a flat object made from a tree with flexible parts on which are imprinted lots of funny dark squiggles. But one glance at it and you’re inside the mind of another person, maybe somebody dead for thousands of years. Across the millennia, an author is speaking clearly and silently inside your head, directly to you. Writing is perhaps the greatest of human inventions, binding together people who never knew each other, citizens of distant epochs. Books break the shackles of time. A book is proof that humans are capable of working magic.”
Sasha Sagan, For Small Creatures Such As We: Rituals and reflections for finding wonder

Lewis Dartnell
“In human evolution, the development of bipedalism clearly came a long way before significant increases in brain size – we walked the walk before we could talk the talk.”
Lewis Dartnell, Origins: How the Earth Shaped Human History

Fran Lebowitz
“Being offended is the natural consequence of leaving one’s home.”
Fran Lebowitz, The Fran Lebowitz Reader

H. Jackson Brown Jr.
“Pay as much attention to the things that are working positively in your life as you do to those that are giving you trouble.”
H. Jackson Brown Jr.

William B. Irvine
“Epictetus therefore advises us not to seek social status, since if we make it our goal to please others, we will no longer be free to please ourselves. We will, he says, have enslaved ourselves.”
William B. Irvine, A Guide to the Good Life: The Ancient Art of Stoic Joy
