Mark Kurlansky
“The American Wasps form very fine paper, like ours; they extract the fiber of common wood of the countries where they live. They teach us that paper can be made from the fiber of plants without the use of rags and linen.”
Mark Kurlansky, Paper: Paging Through History

Thomas C. Foster
“Your reading should be fun. We only call them literary works. Really, though, it's all a form of play. So play, Dear Reader, play. And fare thee well.”
Thomas C. Foster, How to Read Literature Like a Professor

Andrew Ross Sorkin
“The almost singular through line behind every major financial crisis is one thing: debt.”
Andrew Ross Sorkin, 1929: Inside the Greatest Crash in Wall Street History--and How It Shattered a Nation

Michael Franzese
“For once, I felt, the system had worked perfectly. The jury had somehow managed to wade through the government’s misrepresentations and separate the guilty from the innocent.”
Michael Franzese, Blood Covenant: The Story of the "Mafia Prince" Who Publicly Quit the Mob and Lived

John F. Kennedy
“We dare not forget today that we are the heirs of that first revolution. Let the word go forth from this time and place, to friend and foe alike, that the torch has been passed to a new generation of Americans—born in this century, tempered by war, disciplined by a hard and bitter peace, proud of our ancient heritage—and unwilling to witness or permit the slow undoing of those human rights to which this nation has always been committed, and to which we are committed today at home and around the world.”
John F. Kennedy, Profiles in Courage
