Bob Woodward
“Nobody believes—even the people who believe in him somehow believe in him without believing what he says.”
Bob Woodward, Rage

“We need to rediscover a sacred truth that neither conflicts with reason nor oppresses the individual and then to make that understanding the basis of a spiritualized politics. In other words, we need a nonsacerdotal, nonsectarian, nontheological, nontribal religious worldview that is compatible with science and that provides personal orientation, moral guidance, and a framework for public order without imposing dogmas that must be believed or priests who must be obeyed.47 The eventual outcome might be a kind of Confucianism, Taoism, or Stoicism for the postmechanical age.”
Patrick Ophuls, Plato's Revenge: Politics in the Age of Ecology

Olivia Hawker
“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
