Margaret Atwood
“You can take the historian out of the storyteller, but you can't take the storyteller out of the historian.”
Margaret Atwood, The Testaments

“Of the possible shades of indigo dyeing, a deep navy blue was employed most frequently. As a result, ko-ya, the name of the dyers who used it, became a kind of synonym for the whole hand-dyeing industry. The demand for navy blue kept ko-ya so busy that they hardly had time to dye their own clothing; this gave rise to the phrase “a ko-ya who wears white,” which referred in general to anyone too busy attending to the needs of others to attend to his own.”
Sadao Hibi, The Colors of Japan: Background, Characteristics and Creation

“I haven’t been around very long, but if there’s one thing I’ve learned already, it’s that even the friends who can take care of themselves need help sometimes.”
Willow G. Wilson

Nghi Vo
“The Vietnamese were born from the marriage of a dragon from the sea and a goddess from the mountain. They lived together long enough to have one hundred children, but upon realizing that he craved the water, and she her mountains, they split their family in half and went their separate ways.”
Nghi Vo, The Ghost Years

Tim Minchin
“At the root of my atheism -- and my writing style -- is a natural tendency to try to beautify ugly truths rather than swallow beautiful lies.”
Tim Minchin, You Don't Have To Have A Dream: Advice for the Incrementally Ambitious
