John Fowles
“It's despair at the lack of feeling, of love, of reason in the world. It's despair that anyone can even contemplate the idea of dropping a bomb or ordering that it should be dropped. It's despair that so few of us care. It's despair that there's so much brutality and callousness in the world. It's despair that perfectly normal young men can be made vicious and evil because they've won a lot of money. And then do what you've done to me.”
John Fowles, The Collector

Bram Stoker
“We learn from failure, not from success!”
Bram Stoker, Dracula

Louise Glück
“We look at the world once, in childhood. The rest is memory.”
Louise Gluck

Gautama Buddha
“Doubt everything. Find your own light.”
Gautama Buddha, Sayings of Buddha
