Nathaniel Hawthorne
“A stale article, if you did it in a good, warm, sunny smile will go off better than a fresh one that you've scowled upon.”
Nathaniel Hawthorne, The House of the Seven Gables

Joseph Conrad
“I am saddened by the modern system of advertising. Whatever evidence it offers of enterprise, ingenuity, impudence, and resource in certain individuals, it proves to my mind the wide prevalence of that form of mental degradation which is called gullibility. [An anarchist]”
Joseph Conrad, A Set of Six

G.K. Chesterton
“Sex and breathing are about the only two things that generally work best when they are least worried about. That, I suppose, is why the same sophisticated age that has poisoned the world with Feminism is also polluting it with Breathing Exercises.”
G. K. Chesterton

“I am a big believer in the notion that 'the truth is out there', but don't expect it to be delivered to you in a tidy package by any mainstream media outlets.”
David McGowan, Weird Scenes Inside the Canyon: Laurel Canyon, Covert Ops & the Dark Heart of the Hippie Dream

G.K. Chesterton
“It would be no good to tell people they had some good in them, for that is what they were telling themselves all day long. They have to be reminded that they have some bad in them - instinctive idolatries and silent treasons which they always try to forget.”
Chesterton, G. K.
