David Foster Wallace
“It did what all ads are supposed to do: create an anxiety relievable by purchase.”
David Foster Wallace, Infinite Jest

Cynthia D'Aprix Sweeney
“Everyone’s always on the hunt for a mirror. It’s basic psychology. You want to see yourself reflected in others. Others—your sister, your parents—they want to look at you and see themselves. They want you to be a flattering reflection of them—and vice-versa. It’s normal. I suppose it’s really normal if you’re a twin. But being somebody else’s mirror? That is not your job.” Nora”
Cynthia D'Aprix Sweeney, The Nest

Thomas Jefferson
“History, I believe, furnishes no example of a priest-ridden people maintaining a free civil government. This marks the lowest grade of ignorance of which their civil as well as religious leaders will always avail themselves for their own purposes.

{Letter to celebrated scientist Alexander von Humboldt, 6 December, 1813}”
Thomas Jefferson, Letters of Thomas Jefferson
