William O. Douglas
“As nightfall does not come at once, neither does oppression. In both instances, there is a twilight when everything remains seemingly unchanged. And it is in such twilight that we all must be most aware of change in the air â€� however slight â€� lest we become unwitting victims of the darkness.”
William O. Douglas (ed.), The Douglas letters: Selections from the private papers of Justice William O. Douglas

Tiziano Terzani
“Every place is a goldmine. You have only to give yourself time, sit in a teahouse watching the passers-by, stand in a corner of the market, go for a haircut.

Tiziano Terzani, A Fortune-Teller Told Me: Earthbound Travels in the Far East

Neil M. Gunn
“As the Sun put a circle round the earth and all that it contained, so a man by his vision put a circle round himself. At the centre of this circle his spirit sat, and at the centre of his spirit was a serenity for ever watchful. Sometimes the watchfulness gave an edge of joy in holding at bay the demons and even the vengeful lesser gods, and sometimes it meged with the Sun's light into pure timeless joy.”
Neil M. Gunn, Sun Circle
