Just as the office worker dreams of murdering his hated boss and so is saved from really murdering him, so it is with the author; with his great dreams he helps his readers to survive, to avoid their worst intentions. And society, without realizing it respects and even exalts him, albeit with a kind of jealousy, fear and even repulsion, since few people want to discover the horrors that lurk in the depths of their souls. This is the highest mission of great literature, and there is no other.

Ernesto Sabato

The California crunch really is the result of not enough power-generating plants and then not enough power to power the power of generating plants.

George W. Bush

He who surpasses or subdues mankind, must look down on the hate of those below.

Thomas Jefferson

World War I broke out largely because of an arms race, and World War II because of the lack of an arms race.

Herman Kahn
