“It's possible, in a poem or a short story, to write about commonplace things and objects using commonplace but precise language, and to endow those things-- a chair, a window curtain, a fork, a stone, a woman's earring-- with immense, even startling power. It is possible to write a line of seemingly innocuous dialogue and have it send a chill along the reader's spine-- the source of artistic delight, as Nabokov would have it. That's the kind of writing that most interests me.”
― Raymond Carver

“You will die, and I, and all we can create鈥攚hy not a city? But if there is one thing that deserves to be immortal, it is knowledge.”
― John Brunner, The Crucible of Time

“To my generation has now come the challenge. In the days to come we will be tested on whether we have the moral courage, the realism, the idealism, the tenacity, and the ability to sacrifice some of the current comfort to invest in the future... I believe that this generation will rise to the challenge... The experts believe that, like the Democratic Party itself, the less than forty-year-old voters are prepared to sell their souls for some security, real or illusory. They have misjudged us. Just because our political heroes were murdered does not mean that the dream does not still live, buried deep in our broken hearts.”
― Joe Biden, Promises to Keep: On Life and Politics

“Lefever describes his financing plan with modesty:

"'Our detailed budget is realistic, but does not take into account the inflation that may occur before September 1983. The one place it could cut or reduce is item 7, the simultaneous interpreter services, if these services could be provided gratis by the U.S. government.'"

"In other words, the only way to make a saving on a U.S.-subsidized project is to take money out of another U.S.-subsidized column.”
― Christopher Hitchens

“Hooray, I wake from yesterday,
Alive but the war is here to stay,
So my love Katherina and me
Decide to take our last walk through the noise to the sea,
Not to die but to be reborn,
Away from a land so battered and torn鈥�

“It was not unless one lifted one's gaze from all the allegedly normal events occurring before one's eyes and looked at the executioner's sword hanging over everyone's head that the normality was revealed as a sort of mass insanity. . . Passengers on a ship who are . . . engaging in all the usual shipboard activities appear perfectly normal as long as their ship is sailing safely in quiet seas, but . . . deranged if in full view of them all their ship is caught in a vortex that may shortly drag it and them to destruction.”
― Jonathan Schell, The Fate of the Earth

“L鈥櫬� objectivisme 禄 anti-茅motionnel et facticement impassible trahit sa fausset茅 par la contradiction suivante : ceux qui se font les porte-parole d'une rationalit茅 imperturbable et impertinente sont en m锚me temps ceux qui pr茅conisent l'amour libre 鈥� ils n鈥檕nt aucun go没t 脿 l'asc茅tisme 鈥� ou qui s鈥檈nflamment d猫s qu'on parle de politique, et autres incons茅quences de ce genre ; ce qui prouve que leur 芦 objectivit茅 禄 n'est qu'erreur et ostentation, qu'elle est apparent茅e 脿 l'orgueil et 脿 l'amertume ; d'o霉 la propension 脿 blanchir les hommes vils 鈥� sauf quand par hasard ce sont des adversaires politiques 鈥� et 脿 noircir les hommes de bien, calmement et sans passion, du moins sans passion visible ; c'est l脿 un exemple de cette morale 脿 sens unique, si caract茅ristique pour tous les genres d鈥檋ypocrisie. Quoi qu'il en soit, il faut r茅agir contre l'opinion psychanalytique 鈥� tr猫s r茅pandue 鈥� que l鈥檌ndignation aussi bien que l鈥檈nthousiasme r茅v猫lent toujours un pr茅jug茅 ou un parti pris ; opinion simpliste qui est voisine d鈥檜ne autre erreur non moins sotte, 脿 savoir que dans une discorde nul n鈥檃 jamais tout 脿 fait raison, et que celui qui s鈥檈mporte 脿 toujours tort.”
― Frithjof Schuon, R茅sum茅 de m茅taphysique int茅grale

“l'embaumeur lui avait coll茅 la bouche avec du ciment
et la derni猫re image qu'il laissa de lui
fut tr猫s loin de celle qu'on lui avait connue
芦 il se ressemble davantage
sur ses portraits 禄, disait-on
et dans sa barque fun茅raire
on ne mit en v茅rit茅 que peu de choses
sinon le drame d'une vie qu'il ne trouva pas la force d'achever”
― G茅rald Godin

“A big reason for their hesitancy to become recording artists was that during their time at WBAU the Spectrum camp has been observing the harsh realities of the developing rap game. Inflated egos meant that they had to treat the upcoming acts who played at their gigs like kings. But after the shows the Spectrum crew would then drive those acts back to the same impoverished neighbourhoods that they'd always lived in. Driving supposed rap stars back to the projects made an impression. 'None of them were really getting paid off records so I was like, "Damn",' is how Chuck assessed the situation.”
