Bertolt Brecht

#28. The writers who reject tendentiousness and purpose in their work are the very ones who display it in every word they write.

Tad Williams

#35. The fantastic thing about the memorial to the Newfoundland Regiment at Beaumont-Hamel is that it's one of the rare examples where they've preserved a battlefield more or less as it was. You can see all the trenches, where the British were, where the Germans lined up.

Michael Winter

Daniel Webster

#43. The word 'monster' [monstrum] derives from 'demonstrare,' meaning to show or to demonstrate. Heresy and evolutionary change are thus mere intrusions into a homogenous perception of reality. My vocation, I decided, would be to make my life an example.
