Astrid Lindgren
“A childhood without books – that would be no childhood. That would be like being shut out from the enchanted place where you can go and find the rarest kind of joy.”
Astrid Lindgren

Iain M. Banks
“I just took [my cancer diagnosis] as bad luck, basically. It did strike me almost immediately, my atheist sort of thing kicked in and I thought "ha, if I was a God-botherer, I'd be thinking, why me God? What have I done to deserve this?" and I thought at least I'm free of that, at least I can simply treat it as bad luck and get on with it.”
Iain M. Banks

George Orwell
“In a time of deceit telling the truth is a revolutionary act.”
George Orwell

Hermann Hesse
“Learn what is to be taken seriously and laugh at the rest.”
Herman Hesse

Thomas Paine
“One good schoolmaster is of more use than a hundred priests.”
Thomas Paine, The Age of Reason
