N.K. Jemisin
“How can we prepare for the future if we won’t acknowledge the past?”
N.K. Jemisin, The Stone Sky

Ralph Waldo Emerson
“There is no knowledge that is not power.”
Ralph Waldo Emerson

Stephen  King
“I am not the potter, not the potter's wheel, but the potter's clay; is not the value of the shape attained as dependent upon the intrinsic worth of the clay as upon the wheel and the Master's skill?”
Stephen King, The Stand

“Man is now able to fly through the air like a bird, he is able to swim under the sea like a fish, he is able burrow beneath the ground like a mole. Now if only he could walk the earth like a man, this would be paradise.”
Tommy Douglas

Octavia E. Butler
“It’s better to teach people than to scare them, Lauren. If you scare them and nothing happens, they lose their fear, and you lose some of your authority with them. It’s harder to scare them a second time, harder to teach them, harder to win back their trust. Best to begin by teaching.”
Octavia E. Butler, Parable of the Sower
