Fyodor Dostoevsky
“You can't skip over nature by logic. Logic presupposes three possibilities, but there are millions! Cut away a million, and reduce it all to the question of comfort! That's the easiest solution to the problem!”
Fyodor Dostoyevsky, Crime and Punishment

Amina Akhtar
“She affected a faux Continental accent for good measure—it was the fashion voice. Women of a certain age in the industry all had it. Somehow, going to Paris four times a year meant they’d “studied” abroad.”
Amina Akhtar, #FashionVictim
