Denise Mina
“The policemen had clearly been there all morning: four big white tea mugs from the canteen were drained and drip-stained, red-and-gold wrappers from caramel log biscuits were folded into interesting shapes on one side of the table, rolled up into tight little balls on the other.”
Denise Mina, Field of Blood

Jalal ad-Din Muhammad ar-Rumi
“Forget safety.
Live where you fear to live.
Destroy your reputation.
Be notorious.”
Rumi

Jalal ad-Din Muhammad ar-Rumi
“Out beyond ideas of wrongdoing
and rightdoing there is a field.
I'll meet you there.

When the soul lies down in that grass
the world is too full to talk about.”
Rumi

John Fitzgerald Kennedy
“There is nothing in the record of the past two years when both Houses of Congress have been controlled by the Republican Party which can lead any person to believe that those promises will be fulfilled in the future. They follow the Hitler line - no matter how big the lie; repeat it often enough and the masses will regard it as truth.”
John F. Kennedy

George Orwell
“But if thought corrupts language, language can also corrupt thought.”
George Orwell, Politics and the English Language
