Hugh Lofting
“Some people you will always have about you whom you can trust, and no man these days can boast of more than that. Remember them; forget the others.”
Hugh Lofting

“No one is as murderously 'Islamophobic' as Islamists are.”
Nick Cohen

Terry Pratchett
“If cats looked like frogs we'd realize what nasty, cruel little bastards they are. Style. That's what people remember.”
Terry Pratchett, Lords and Ladies

Octavio Paz
“Beyond myself, somewhere,
I wait for my arrival.”
Octavio Paz, The Collected Poems, 1957-1987

Edward W. Said
“The Orient and Islam have a kind of extrareal, phenomenologically reduced status that puts them out of reach of everyone except the Western expert. From the beginning of Western speculation about the Orient, the one thing the orient could not do was to represent itself. Evidence of the Orient was credible only after it had passed through and been made firm by the refining fire of the Orientalist’s work.”
Edward W. Said, Orientalism
