## Quotes

* I feel like political engagement is something that people, if they’re so inclined, all people should do...It’s not something that’s just for special, branded activists. It’s in part being a citizen.
** interview with The Forward (2016)
* The Jewish heritage that resonates the most with me is our history as rebels and rootless cosmopolitans. Our history as the first white Freedom Riders who were murdered. Our history as dissident intellectuals like Hannah Arendt. Our skepticism, our nonalignment, all the things that made authoritarians throughout the world hate us so much.
** interview with The Forward (2016)
* Look at this vast, beautiful, crazy, fucked-up, gorgeous, horrifying world. How could you not be inspired by it?
** interview with The Forward (2016)
* I think one of the problems that Americans often have when we're thinking about the Middle East is that Americans often only see images of the Middle East that come from war. So Americans might not realize that there are actually hundreds of thousands of people living in Raqqa, just like normal people, and if you take that awareness away, then it becomes very easy "Oh, bomb them all."
** Interview with NPR (2015)
* I think that school just isn't for everyone. A lot of people don't learn well when they have to sit in a place for eight hours. A lot of people learn best lying in their own beds, teaching themselves from books. And I was a bad student, I was a brat — if I was a teacher, I would not have liked myself — but this hammering kids to fit into this system is horrific. It leads to a lot of kids being either medicalized or criminalized, and I think the message I would have to kids is just like, survive it. And then, once you're out of childhood, I mean, you're just so much freer.
** Interview with NPR (2015)

### "Statement" in The Outlaw Bible of American Art (2016)

* I started drawing when I was four. It fast became a way to relate to a world where classmates wrote death threats on my book bag. In grade school, I'd draw kids so they wouldn't hit me. Artists are courtiers more often than rebels. Painters survived the gulags by drawing criminals' kids. Being small and skilled, you learn to create little portals of escapism-to which the strong are as susceptible as anyone else.
* Women are looked at. But as an artist, I had permission to look back. Where the respectable avert their gaze, artists stare.
* Drawing is disruptive. You're producing when you're expected to consume.
* You take photos. Drawings you make. Cameras steal life force. Paintings, like The Picture of Dorian Gray, give you more.

# Louis Ncamiso Ndlovu

Louis Ncamiso Ndlovu (15 March 1945 – 27 August 2012) was a prelate of the catholic Church who served as the bishop of the Diocese of Manzini.

## Quotes

* The Church should put at the heart of its ministry is that of refugees. Africa, as a continent, has the highest number of refugees and displaced people. Each person is entitled to a place where she/he can settle without fear. In fact, the very foundations of "a people of God" in the Bible is founded on a community which is settled in a place that it can call its own: where it enjoys security.
** Bishop Louis Ncamiso NDLOVU (Bishop of Manzini, Swaziland) (1994) The African Synod
* The Constitution was adopted and a significant portion of the Swazi people was left out of the process. We believe that it was due to being marginalized that led some people to adopt crude and violent methods so as to force change in the country. This is really a cry for attention and recognition.
** “The recent bombings are thus a manifestation of the failure by the ruling elite to engage in serious and honest dialogue,” says the Bishop of Manzini, condemning the wave of terrorism passing through Swaziland in recent months (25 November 2008) Fides News Agency
* The Swazi people are a homogenous group, having the same culture and speaking the same language. As such the Swazi people can be likened to one big family. We are thus once again called to live as a family. Every family has to face some problems and disagreements at some point. We should deal with these problems in a truthful and honest manner and above all in a spirit of charity.
** - H. Exc. Mons. Louis Ncamiso NDLOVU, O.S.M., Bishop of Manzini (SWAZILAND) (8 October 2009) Press Office of the Holy See

# Jefferson Airplane

Jefferson Airplane was an American rock band formed in San Francisco, California, in 1965. One of the pioneering bands of psychedelic rock, the group defined the San Francisco Sound and was the first from the Bay Area to achieve international commercial success. They headlined the Monterey Pop Festival (1967), Woodstock (1969), Altamont Free Concert (1969), and the first Isle of Wight Festival (1968) in England. The October 1966 to February 1970 lineup of Jefferson Airplane, consisting of Marty Balin (vocals), Paul Kantner (guitar, vocals), Grace Slick (vocals, keyboards), Jorma Kaukonen (lead guitar, vocals), Jack Casady (bass), and Spencer Dryden (drums), was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1996.

## Song lyrics

* One pill makes you larger, And one pill makes you small. And the ones that mother gives you Don't do anything at all. Go ask Alice When she's ten feet tall.
** "White Rabbit", from Surrealistic Pillow., written by Grace Slick (1967)
* When logic and proportion Have fallen sloppy dead, And the White Knight is talking backwards, And the Red Queen's off with her head, Remember what the dormouse said: Feed your head. Feed your head.
** "White Rabbit"
* One generation got old One generation got soul This generation go no destination to hold Pick up the cry
** “Volunteers,” from Volunteers (1969), as quoted by Jordan Blum of Loudwire

## Quotes about Jefferson Airplane

* San Franciscan band Jefferson Airplane soared as the soundtrack to America's late-sixties counterculture, with its psychedelia, pot, and anti-Vietnam War, anti-establishment protest. [...] That sound − a folk-garage acid mix − and indeed the band's whole persona [as well] − were infused with a potent cocktail of marijuana, LSD, cocaine, and amphetamines.
** David Roberts in the book Rock Chronicles: Every Legend. Every Line-up. Every Look. (published October 25, 2019) Firefly Books. pp. 250.
# Deep Purple

Deep Purple are an English rock band formed in London in 1968. They are considered to be among the pioneers of heavy metal and modern hard rock, although their musical style has varied throughout their career. Originally formed as a psychedelic rock and progressive rock band, they shifted to a heavier sound with their 1970 album Deep Purple in Rock. Deep Purple, together with Led Zeppelin and Black Sabbath, have been referred to as the "unholy trinity of British hard rock and heavy metal in the early to mid-seventies".

## Quotes about Deep Purple

* The family tree of musicians and bands that sprouted from Deep Purple is truly amazing. The group, which spawned the likes of David Coverdale and Glenn Hughes, is one of the true pioneers of the hard rock and heavy metal sound.
** Jeff Mezydlo of Yardbarker (February 2025)
* Although Deep Purple helped lay the foundation for the heavy metal, their consummate musicianship meant they also transcended the genre. Indeed, they began as a progressive rock group with their eyes, unusually, on the singles market. Yet they certainly rocked, as their shows from the earliest days conclusively proved.
** David Roberts in the book Rock Chronicles: Every Legend. Every Line-up. Every Look. (published October 25, 2019) Firefly Books. pp. 148.
# Willard InterContinental Washington

The Willard InterContinental Washington is a historic luxury hotel located two blocks east of the White House. The original Willard’s Hotel was in operation from 1847 to 1900, when it was shut down for extensive renovation. The hotel was reopened in 1901 and sold by the Willard family in 1946. The hotel became unprofitable and was shut down in 1968. Years later, under new ownership, the hotel was restored and renovated. In 1986 the hotel reopened as the Willard InterContinental.

## Quotes

* At this time a number of Confederate prisoners, who had been taken in the first day's fight when our army fell back from Bull Run, were brought to Washington, and on passing Willard's Hotel were set upon by the crowd who usually congregated there, and pelted with stones and other missiles, which seriously wounded a number. In order to prevent the prisoners from being actually torn to pieces a company of U. S. regulars had to be called out to protect them to their quarters, the Old Capitol prison; and during the march to that point the soldiers had repeatedly to threaten to fire upon the mob, who pressed upon them with shouts and obscene revilings.
** Rose O'Neal Greenhow, My Imprisonment and the First Year of Abolition Rule at Washington. London: Richard Bentley. 1863. p. 25. 2010 pbk edition. ISBN 9781453813584.
* From these various excursions, and a good many others, (including one to Manassas,) we gained a pretty lively idea of what was going on; but, after all, if compelled to pass a rainy day in the hall and parlors of Willard's Hotel, it proved about as profitably spent as if we had floundered through miles of Virginia mud, in quest of interesting matter. This hotel, in fact, may much more justly be called the centre of Washington and the Union than either the Capitol, the White House or the State Department. Everybody may be seen there. It is the meeting-place of the true representatives of the country,—not such as are chosen blindly and amiss by electors who take a folded ballot from the hand of a local politician, and thrust it into the ballot-box unread, but men who gravitate or are attracter hither by real business, or a native impulse to breathe the intensest atmosphere of the nation's life, or a genuine anxiety to see how this life-and-death struggle is going to deal with us.
** Nathaniel Hawthorne, (July 1862)"Chiefly About War-Matters". Atlantic Monthly X (LVII): 43–61. (quote from p. 57)

# Noa Tsurushima

Noa Tsurushima (鶴嶋 乃愛; Tsurushima Noa; born 24 May 2001) is a Japanese model and actress.

## Quotes

* I honestly have no idea why I was chosen, I’m surprised by it. I’m excited to see where this takes me.
* When I’m told to laugh, I begin laughing. Even during filming, when I’m told to crack up, I end up being the only one who cracks up.
* I read often but, the genre I go to is mystery. I like to write my own stories but as you know, people often die in mysteries, so someone often dies in my stories. Also, I like to go to art galleries on my day offs.
* When we’re introduced to Izu in episode one, we know nothing. But I believe that moving forward, Izu will continue to learn and evolve by working alongside the protagonist, Aruto. Therefore, it’s a role where a lot is up in the air. Part of the charm is that it’s unpredictable.
* "I used to love frilly lolita fashion, so I was so excited when I first saw what I would be wearing as Izu (in Kamen Rider Zero-One movie). Her shoes are interestingly shaped, and the material of the the tights and leather. I want people to appreciate all the little details. Izu maybe the admirable grown-up lady to kids, but I'm sure they'll be astonished by her strange outfit and blue eyes. She'll gradually learn more emotion so I'd like it if they could get hooked on that aspect. I hope they'd all be like "I want Izu too", or "I want to be Izu's President!"

# Juan Rulfo

## Quotes

* In my life there are many silences…In my writing, too.
** On a quote from Rulfo as relayed by Susan Sontag (mentioned in “A brief survey of the short story part 52: Juan Rulfo” in The Guardian)
* Nothing can last forever; there is no memory, however intense, that does not fade.
** From his work Pedro Páramo
* It is a difficult thing to grow up knowing that the thing where we can hold on to take root is dead.
** From his work “Tell them not to kill me!” in the short story collection The Burning Plain
* ’I will get to the idea that I dreamed you,’ he said. Because the truth is that I've known you for a long time, but I like you more when I dream of you. Then I make of you what I want. Not like now that, as you see, we have not been able to do anything.
** From his work “A piece of night” in the short story collection The Golden Cockerel and Other Writings
* Learn this, son: in the new nest you have to leave an egg. When I aged you, you will learn to live, you will know that the children are leaving you, that they do not thank you for anything; They eat until your memory.
** From his work “Northern Passage” in the short story collection The Burning Plain
* The living are those who are a shame. Don't you think so? The dead do not give war to anyone; but what is alive, they do not find how to mortify the lives of others. If they even kill each other to end the hearts of others. With that I tell you everything. On the other hand, we must not hate the dead. They are the great thing. Are good. The best beings on earth.
** From his work “A piece of night” in the short story collection The Golden Cockerel and Other Writings

* I owe a special debt to Juan Rulfo, the Mexican writer who gave voice to the blood-soaked earth of the Mexican Revolution and a people who endure.
** Kathleen Alcalá Preface to Mrs. Vargas and the Dead Naturalist (1992)
* I belong to the first generation of Latin American writers brought up reading other Latin American writers. Before my time the work of Latin American writers was not well distributed, even on our continent. In Chile it was very hard to read other writers from Latin America. My greatest influences have been all the great writers of the Latin American Boom in literature: García Márquez, Vargas Llosa, Cortázar, Borges, Paz, Rulfo, Amado, etc.
** Isabel Allende Interview
* Among the Mexican writers I prefer Juan Rulfo for the wonderful mystery and magic of his writings, all those disembodied voices.
** Denise Chávez interview in Chicana Ways (2002)
# Terence John Brain

## Quotes

# Mary Monica Maxwell-Scott

Mary Monica Maxwell-Scott (2 October 1852 – 15 March 1920) was an author Scottish.

## Quotes

* Mary had always had a taste for history, and now in the long days of captivity she seems to have given much of her time to this favourite study. The history of her own house, as well as that of the English royal family, must have had a deep and painful interest for her at a moment when she herself was threatened with a fate as tragic as any recorded in its darkest pages.

But we know that the North Korean people are watching us and cheering us on and by knowing this we can overcome these fears of intimidation. We know that what we are doing and how we do it with the North Korean society, they will experience change from within. So the harder we push, the harder we will try.

# Illustration

## Quotes
### 19th century

* "What is the use of a book", thought Alice, "without pictures or conversations?"
** Lewis Carroll, Alice's Adventures in Wonderland (1865), ch. 1
* Why did you make the Lady of Shalott, in the illustration, with her hair wildly tossed about as if by tornado? ... I didn’t say that her hair was blown about like that ... Why did you make the web wind round and round her like the threads of a cocoon? ... I did not say it floated round and round her.
** Alfred, Lord Tennyson to William Holman Hunt (c. 1888–1905), reported in W. H. Hunt, Pre-Raphaelitism and the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood (1905)

### 20th century

** Art Young, His Life and Times (1939)
* To illustrate any text is also to interpret it.
** Alison Lurie, Don’t Tell the Grown-Ups (1990)
* Beatrix Potter portrayed the world from a mouse’s- or rabbit’s- or small child’s-eye view. The vantage point in her exquisite watercolors varies from a few inches to a few feet from the ground, like that of a toddler.
** Alison Lurie, Don’t Tell the Grown-Ups (1990)
* Can you imagine illustration in modern novels? ... For instance, in Norman Mailer? They would have to be abstracts. Don’t you think? Sort of barbed wire and blotches?
** Alice Munro, Open Secrets (1994)

### 21st century

* Illustration is a very old form, far older than the novel, balanced somewhere in between painting and literature but belonging to neither.
** Shirley Hughes, A Life Drawing (2002)
* I cannot imagine how it must feel for an author to see someone else’s interpretation of their own inner vision. I am constantly amazed at how appreciative most of them manage to be.
** Shirley Hughes, A Life Drawing (2002)
