Ryszard Kapuściński
“The unschooled European mind, inclined to rational reduction, to pigeonholing and simplification, readily pushes everything African into a single bag and is content with facile stereotypes.”
Ryszard Kapuściński, The Shadow of the Sun

Lindsay Eagar
“It is a big world, full of things that steal your breath and fill your belly with fire...But where you go when you leave isn't as important as where you go when you come home.”
Lindsay Eagar, Hour of the Bees

Jacqueline Novogratz
“As is so often the case, the supposedly insignificant understood the psychology of the strong, while the strong didn't have a clue about the other.”
Jacqueline Novogratz, The Blue Sweater: Bridging the Gap Between Rich and Poor in an Interconnected World

Aldous Huxley
“[...] Technology has tended to devaluate the traditional vision-inducing materials. The illumination of a city, for example, was once a rare event, reserved for victories and national holidays, for the canonization of saints and the crowning of kings. Now it occurs nightly and celebrates the virtues of gin, cigarettes and toothpaste.”
Aldous Huxley, The Doors of Perception & Heaven and Hell

Jacqueline Novogratz
“You should focus on being more interested than interesting.”
Jacqueline Novogratz, The Blue Sweater: Bridging the Gap Between Rich and Poor in an Interconnected World
