Isaac Asimov
“Violence is the last refuge of the incompetent.”
Isaac Asimov, Foundation

Jonathan Littell
“If you were born in a country or at a time not only when nobody comes to kill your wife and your children, but also nobody comes to ask you to kill the wives and children of others, then render thanks to God and go in peace. But always keep this thought in mind: you might be luckier than I, but you’re not a better person.”
Jonathan Littell, The Kindly Ones

John McWhorter
“A person you excuse from any genuine challenge is a person you do not truly respect.”
John McWhorter, Losing the Race: Self-Sabotage in Black America

André Gide
“It is better to be hated for what you are than to be loved for what you are not.”
Andre Gide, Autumn Leaves

Helen Pluckrose

Helen Pluckrose, Cynical Theories: How Activist Scholarship Made Everything about Race, Gender, and Identity—and Why This Harms Everybody
