Albert Camus
“Nonetheless, he knew that the tale he had to tell could not be one of a final victory. It could be only the record of what had had to be done, and what assuredly would have to be done again in the never ending fight against terror and its relentless onslaughts, despite their personal afflictions, by all who, while unable to be saints but refusing to bow down to pestilences, strive their utmost to be healers.”
Albert Camus, The Plague

“The oaten heaviness of the air, the thick-porridge density of it, the way its odor of dryness and limpness sank down among fresher scents of green and dew and lay there, immobile as a dead thing.”
Olivia Hawker, One for the Blackbird, One for the Crow

Bob Woodward
“He’s the kind of person that would inspire crazy people.”
Bob Woodward, Rage

Graeme Rodaughan
“Humility will allow you to master what you need to learn, and to be fully present when the moment comes to use what you have mastered.”
Graeme Rodaughan, A Subtle Agency

Tiago Forte
“We call someone who is not in control of their mind insane. What do we call someone who is not in control of their attention, which is the gateway to the mind?”
Tiago Forte, Design Your Work: Praxis Volume 1
