Liz Cheney
“Despite the brutal violence, destruction, and death at the Capitol, despite the fact that Donald Trump’s lies—the same lies Republicans were telling to justify the objections—had mobilized the mob and caused the attack, McCarthy was going to let the travesty go on. Kevin McCarthy lacked the courage and the honor to abide by his oath to the Constitution. This wasn’t leadership. It was cowardice, and it was craven. I wanted no part of it. I got up and walked out of the House chamber.”
Liz Cheney, Oath and Honor: A Memoir and a Warning

Liz Cheney
“Since January 6, we had met privately several times in a town house near Capitol Hill, along with a small group of experts on authoritarianism and the rise of antidemocratic movements. We agreed that the threat posed by Donald Trump might well imperil the existence of American democracy.”
Liz Cheney, Oath and Honor: A Memoir and a Warning

“Lonny Cane looked a lot like Daddy, if Daddy were for sale in a thrift shop.”
Tabitha King, Candles Burning

Liz Cheney
“The resolution reflected a political party that had lost its principles and, frankly, seemed to be led by morons. This was my reply: The leaders of the Republican Party have made themselves willing hostages to a man who admits he tried to overturn a presidential election and suggests he would pardon Jan. 6 defendants, some of whom have been charged with seditious conspiracy. I’m a Constitutional conservative, and I do not recognize those in my party who have abandoned the Constitution to embrace Donald Trump. History will be their judge. RNC”
Liz Cheney, Oath and Honor: A Memoir and a Warning

“He wanted to be Byron, but guess what?" Pettit said. "Nobody reads Byron anymore. . . But everybody reads Poe. He Outlives Byron. He outpaces Byron. He outdoes Byron. He didn't get to be Byron, but he got to be Edgar Allan Poe. He's going to be the best-read American writer in the world, and you wish he could have known that.”
Mark Dawidziak, A Mystery of Mysteries: The Death and Life of Edgar Allan Poe
