Christine M. Knight
“The music of hope is everywhere. All you have to do is listen for it.”
Christine M Knight, Life Song

Harold Phifer
“The teacher pulled out a pile of papers. They were Bennie’s tests and homework assignments. Mrs. Lewis said, “Ma’am, here is the proof that Bennie isn’t up to a fourth grade level. He has an F on several of these assignments. In fact, a zero grade is too high for some of Bennie’s work this last year.”
Harold Phifer, Surviving Chaos: How I Found Peace at A Beach Bar

John Stuart Mill
“حقیقت از اشتباهات کسی که با تحقیق و مطالعه به استقلال و برای خود فکر می کند، بهره بیشتری می برد، تا از عقاید درست عده دیگر که اعتقادشان به عقیده ای، بدان سبب است که هرگز رنج فکر کردن به خود نداده اند”
جان استوارت میل

Susan Cain
“Respect for individual human personality has with us reached its lowest point," observed one intellectual in 1921, "and it is delightfully ironical that no nation is so constantly talking about personality as we are. We actually have schools for 'self-expression' and 'self-development,' although we seem usually to mean the expression and development of a successful real estate agent.”
Susan Cain, Quiet: The Power of Introverts in a World That Can't Stop Talking

Ernest Cline
“I don't know exactly what happened next, or how it all went down.”
Ernest Cline, Ready Player Two
