Howard Zinn
“But I suppose the most revolutionary act one can engage in is... to tell the truth.”
Howard Zinn, Marx in Soho: A Play on History

Grace Paley
“That heartbreaking moment when you finish an amazing book, and you are forced to return to reality.”
Grace Paley

Chaim Potok
“Williamsburg was stifling, narcotized by the heat.”
Chaim Potok, The Promise

Grace Paley
“Near home I ran through our park, where I had aired my children on weekends and late-summer afternoons. I stopped at the northeast playground, where I met a dozen young mothers intelligently handling their little ones. In order to prepare them, meaning no harm, I said, In fifteen years, you girls will be like me, wrong in everything”
Grace Paley

Howard Zinn
“But human beings are not machines, and however powerful the pressure to conform, they sometimes are so moved by what they see as injustice that they dare to declare their independence. In that historical possibility lies hope.”
Howard Zinn, You Can't Be Neutral on a Moving Train: A Personal History of Our Times
