P.G. Wodehouse
“He sallied forth, having told all those bally lies with the clear, blue, pop-eyed gaze of a young child.”
P.G. Wodehouse, The Inimitable Jeeves

Douglas Adams
“I love deadlines. I like the whooshing sound they make as they fly by.”
Douglas Adams, The Salmon of Doubt: Hitchhiking the Galaxy One Last Time

William J.  Burns
“Shaping the principles of policy debate, I learned, is often the first step toward winning it.”
William J. Burns, The Back Channel: A Memoir of American Diplomacy and the Case for Its Renewal

Andrei Sakharov
“What I learned was more than sufficient to impress upon me the horror, the real danger, and the utter insanity of thermonuclear warfare, which threatens everyone on earth. Our reports, and the conferences where we discussed a strategic thermonuclear strike on a potential enemy, transformed the unthinkable and monstrous into a subject for detailed investigation and calculation ... I could not stop thinking about this, and I came to realize that the technical, military, and economic problems are secondary; the fundamental issues are political and ethical. Gradually, subconsciously, I was approaching an irrevocable step—a wide-ranging public statement on war and peace and other global issues.”
Andrei Sakharov

Jackie Wang
“Increasingly, municipalities (and companies contracted by municipalities) are behaving like businesses, viewing residents as potential sources of revenue, as well as viewing the generation of revenue via fines as a form of productivity.”
Jackie Wang, Carceral Capitalism
