Tracy Kidder
“How could a just God permit great misery? The Haitian peasants answered with a proverb: "Bondye konn bay, men li pa konn separe," in literal translation, "God gives but doesn't share." This meant... God gives us humans everything we need to flourish, but he's not the one who's supposed to divvy up the loot. That charge was laid upon us.”
Tracy Kidder, Paul Farmer (Mountains Beyond Mountains)

Anatole France
“Never lend books, for no one ever returns them; the only books I have in my library are books that other folks have lent me.”
Anatole France

Confucius
“What the superior man seeks is in himself; what the small man seeks is in others.”
Confucius

Lao Tzu
“Music in the soul can be heard by the universe.”
Lao Tzu

“Many people find it easy to imagine unseen webs of malevolent conspiracy in the world, and they are not always wrong. But there is also an innocence that conspires to hold humanity together, and it is made of people who can never fully know the good that they have done.”
Tracy Kidder
