Kenneth Maher
“The old rules no longer applied but new ones were not yet clearly defined, leaving those with authority or power to determine what was acceptable.”
Kenneth Maher, Wind of Change: An American Journey in Post-Soviet Russia

Angela Carter
“Reading a book is like re-writing it for yourself . . . You bring to a novel, anything you read, all your experience of the world. You bring your history and you read it in your own terms.”
Angela Carter

Kevin Ansbro
“Within the pages of books, I've journeyed to Mandalay, the Milky Way and Santa Fe.”
Kevin Ansbro

Jonathan Haidt
“The human mind is a story processor, not a logic processor.”
Jonathan Haidt, The Righteous Mind: Why Good People Are Divided by Politics and Religion

Hjalmar Söderberg
“Thought is an acid, eating us away. At first we imagine it will only eat into that which is rotten and sick and must be removed. But thought thinks otherwise. It eats blindly. It begins with the prey you most gladly throw to it - but don't imagine it will be content with that! It doesn't stop until it has gnawed away the last thing you hold dear.”
Hjalmar Söderberg, Doctor Glas
