Dorothy Day
“Going to confession is hard. Writing a book is hard, because you are giving yourself away. But if you love, you want to give yourself. You write as you are impelled to write, about man and his problems, his relation to God and his fellows. You write about yourself because in the long run all man’s problems are the same, his human needs of sustenance and love.”
Dorothy Day, The Long Loneliness: The Autobiography of the Legendary Catholic Social Activist – A Greenwich Village Journalist's Conversion and Commitment to Peace and Justice

Wayne Gerard Trotman
“Make love not war; vigorously and as frequently as possible.”
Wayne Gerard Trotman

Omar El Akkad
“One day, when it's safe, when there's no personal downside to calling a thing what it is, when it's too late to hold anyone accountable, everyone will have always been against this.”
Omar El Akkad

Bella Coronel
“I'll be your book to read on when everything else starts to wither, even when you don't remember me, at all.”
Bella Coronel, Chasing Dandelions: A Collection of Prose and Poetry

Dag Hammarskjöld
“You cannot play with the animal in you without becoming wholly animal, play with falsehood without forfeiting your right to truth, play with cruelty without losing your sensitivity of mind. He who wants to keep his garden tidy does not reserve a plot for weeds.”
Dag Hammarskjöld
