“ "Nothing better forges a bond of love, friendship or respect than common hatred toward something."”
Seagull • Anton Chekhov“It's striking that Native Americans evolved no devastating epidemic diseases to give to Europeans in return for the many devastating epidemic diseases that Indians received from the Old World.”
Guns, Germs And Steel • Jared Diamond, Ph.D. (UCLA)“Fiction is like a spider's web, attached ever so lightly perhaps, but still attached to life at all four corners. Often the attachment is scarcely perceptible; Shakespeare's plays, for instance, seem to hang there complete by themselves. But when the web is pulled askew, hooked up at the edge, torn in the middle, one remembers that these webs are not spun in midair by incorporeal creatures, but are the work of suffering human beings, and are attached to the grossly material things, like health and money and the houses we live in.”
A Room of One's Own • Virginia Woolf“Fashion is a form of ugliness so intolerable that we have to alter it every six months.”
The Happy Prince • Oscar Wilde“What are you laughing at? You are laughing at yourselves!”
The Inspector General • Nikolai Gogol
