David Foster Wallace

Carl Bernstein
“So the White House wants to eat the Washington Post, so what? It will be wearing on you, but the end is in sight. It’s building and they see it and they know that they can’t stop the real story from coming out. That’s why they’re so desperate.

Carl Bernstein, All the President's Men

Danny Meyer

Brandon Sanderson
“All stories told have been told before. We tell them to ourselves, as did all men who ever were. And all men who ever will be. The only things new are the names.” Kaladin”
Brandon Sanderson, Words of Radiance
