Helene Hanff
“I do love secondhand books that open to the page some previous owner read oftenest. The day Hazlitt came he opened to "I hate to read new books," and I hollered "Comrade!" to whoever owned it before me.”
Helene Hanff, 84, Charing Cross Road

William  James
“A great nation is not saved by wars, it is saved by acts without external picturesqueness; by speaking, writing, voting reasonably; by smiting corruption swiftly; by good temper between parties; by the people knowing true men when they see them, and preferring them as leaders to rabid partisans and empty quacks.”
William James

John Kenneth Galbraith
“Trickle-down theory - the less than elegant metaphor that if one feeds the horse enough oats, some will pass through to the road for the sparrows.”
John Kenneth Galbraith

J.M. Barrie
“To live will be an awfully big adventure.”
J.M. Barrie, Peter Pan

John Kenneth Galbraith
“The conventional view serves to protect us from the painful job of thinking.”
John Kenneth Galbraith
