“Don't be seduced into thinking that that which does not make a profit is without value.”
― Arthur Miller

“The universe is absurd. People want to make sense of it because we’re hardwired to find reason in the randomness. We look for patterns in the chaos. See omens in coincidence. We look at the random distribution of stars in the sky and pretend they look like animals, call them constellations. For some reason, we want to give meaning to the meaningless. If you go looking for the number eighty-eight, you’ll see it everywhere—the number of keys on a piano, the number of counties in Ohio—but it doesn’t mean anything.”
― James Renner, The Man from Primrose Lane

“Appalachia was Appalachia, regardless of boundaries someone had set an eternity ago. A land of breathtaking beauty, of steep hills and rolling mountains”
― John Grisham, Gray Mountain

“It ain’t creek water, but it’ll do.”
― Melinda Clayton, Appalachian Justice
