    Literature is where I go to explore the highest and lowest places in human society and in the human spirit, where I hope to find not absolute truth but the truth of the tale, of the imagination and of the heart.
    Salman Rushdie (b. 1947)

    There are other places at which ... the laws have said there shall be towns; but Nature has said there shall not, and they remain unworthy of enumeration.
    Thomas Jefferson (1743–1826)

    When our hatred is too fierce, it places us beneath those we hate.
    François, Duc De La Rochefoucauld (1613–1680)
