Nadezhda Mandelstam
“I decided it is better to scream. Silence is the real crime against humanity.”
Nadezhda Mandelstam, Hope Against Hope

J.D. Salinger
“We’re freaks, that’s all. Those two bastards got us nice and early and made us into freaks with freakish standards, that’s all. We’re the tattooed lady, and we’re never going to have a minute’s peace, the rest of our lives, until everybody else is tattooed, too.”
J.D. Salinger, Franny and Zooey

Slavoj Žižek
“I am an anti-capitalist because I believe we can improve on it. I believe that we can create the vision I have for a totalized system, a unified system, that can effectively do things. Stop global warming. Feed everybody. Settle disputes diplomatically, and when necessary, quash disputes militarily with proportional measure. This may sound unnecessarily harsh, but it needs to be said, because it is part and parcel of any type of system, if it is to be successful.    This is what I think can save us.”
Slavoj Žižek, Unfiltered Thought: A Political Philosophy

James Baldwin
“We stared at each other across a narrow space that was full of danger, that almost seemed to roar, like flame.

‘Come,’ he said.”
James Baldwin, Giovanni’s Room

Ernest Hemingway
“That was the end of the first part of Paris. Paris was never to be the same again although it was always Paris and you changed as it changed. We never went back to the Vorarlberg and neither did the rich.”
Ernest Hemingway, A Moveable Feast
