Madeleine K. Albright
“Most of us lived through the years when spam threatened to destroy e-mail. Today, democracy is being weakened by lies that come in waves and pound our senses the way a beach is assaulted by the surf. Leaders who play by the rules are having trouble staying ahead of a relentless news cycle and must devote too much effort trying to disprove stories that seem to come out of nowhere and have been invented solely to do them in.”
Madeleine K. Albright, Fascism: A Warning

Eric Jorgenson
“the moment of suffering—when you’re in pain—is a moment of truth. It is a moment where you’re forced to embrace reality the way it actually is. Then, you can make meaningful change and progress. You can only make progress when you’re starting with the truth.”
Eric Jorgenson, The Almanack of Naval Ravikant: A Guide to Wealth and Happiness

Joan Didion
“There was a way to know if you had made headway. You knew you had made headway, when a doctor to whom you had made one or another suggestions, presented, a day later, the plan as his own.”
Joan Didion, The Year of Magical Thinking

Joan Didion
“The error, if it was an error, had been there from the beginning. I left it as it was.

Why do you always have to be right.
Why do you always have to have the last word.
For once in your life just let it go.”
Joan Didion, The Year of Magical Thinking

Isabel Wilkerson
“It was no accident that my caste radar worked more efficiently when there was a group of people interacting among themselves. Caste is, in a way, a performance, and I could detect the caste positions of people in a group but not necessarily a single Indian by himself or herself. "There is never caste," the Dalit leader Ambedkar once said. "Only castes.”
Isabel Wilkerson, Caste: The Origins of Our Discontents
