—Clara Barton (1821–1912)
“Who wants a world in which the guarantee that we shall not die of starvation entails the risk of dying of boredom?”
—Raoul Vaneigem (b. 1934)
“The within, all that inner space one never sees, the brain and the heart and other caverns where thought and feeling dance their sabbath.”
—Samuel Beckett (1906–1989)
