Quotes by K身tar身 Isaka (?)

“Often the case with people who don't read fiction. Hollow inside, monochrome, so they can switch gears no problem. They swallow something and forget about it as soon as it goes down their throat. Constitutionally incapable of empathy. These are people who most need to read, but in most cases it's already too late.”

“Leave something where it is for too long and it starts to go bad, you ever heard that? If the same
people hold power forever, they get corrupt, every time.”
