“You get on base, we win. You don't, we lose. And I hate losing, Chavy. I hate it. I hate losing more than I even wanna win.”
Billy Beane

Benito Mussolini
“A nation of spaghetti eaters cannot restore Roman civilization!”
Benito Mussolini

Svetlana Alexievich
“Death is the fairest thing in the world. No one's ever gotten out of it. The earth takes everyone - the kind, the cruel, the sinners. Aside from that, there's no fairness on earth.”
Svetlana Aleksievich, Voices from Chernobyl: The Oral History of a Nuclear Disaster

Svetlana Alexievich
“We're often silent. We don't yell and we don't complain. We're patient, as always. Because we don't have the words yet. We're afraid to talk about it. We don't know how. It's not an ordinary experience, and the questions it raises are not ordinary. The world has been split in two: there's us, the Chernobylites, and then there's you, the others. Have you noticed? No one here points out that they're Russian or Belarussian or Ukrainian. We all call ourselves Chernobylites. "We're from Chernobyl." "I'm a Chernobylite." As if this is a separate people. A new nation.”
Svetlana Alexievich, Voices from Chernobyl: The Oral History of a Nuclear Disaster

Svetlana Alexievich
“I'm not afraid of God. I'm afraid of man.”
Svetlana Alexievich, Voices from Chernobyl: The Oral History of a Nuclear Disaster
