Franz Kafka
“A book must be the axe for the frozen sea within us.”
Franz Kafka

J. Krishnamurti
“It is no measure of health to be well adjusted to a profoundly sick society.”
J. Krishnamurti

George Bernard Shaw
“Life does not cease to be funny when people die any more than it ceases to be serious when people laugh.”
George Bernard Shaw, The Doctor's Dilemma

Karl Marx
“The oppressed are allowed once every few years to decide which particular representatives of the oppressing class are to represent and repress them.”
Karl Marx

Heather  McGhee
“Among those in the United States arrested for criminal activity, the vast majority, 69 percent, is white. Yet white people constitute only about 28 percent of the people who appear on crime reports on TV news, while Black people are dramatically overrepresented. Yes, violent crime rates are higher in disinvested neighborhoods of color than in well-resourced white enclaves, but once you control for poverty, the difference disappears. Crime victimization is as prevalent in poor white communities as poor Black communities; it’s similar in rural poor areas and urban poor ones. In addition, less policing in middle-income and wealthy neighborhoods means that their violent crimes often go unreported.”
Heather McGhee, The Sum of Us: What Racism Costs Everyone and How We Can Prosper Together
