3 December 2020 Aldous Huxley Perhaps it’s good for one to suffer. Can an artist do anything if he’s happy? Would he ever want to do anything? What is art, after all, but a protest against the horrible inclemency of life?

3 December 2020 Alberto Moravia When I sit at my table to write, I never know what it’s going to be until I’m under way. I trust in inspiration, which sometimes comes and sometimes doesn’t. But I don’t sit back waiting for it. I work every day.
3 December 2020 Barbara Castle Those were the ideals that drove us to nationalization of the health service.
3 December 2020 Casey Kasum I’d like to feel that an advertiser gets something extra when they advertise with us – a certain humanity that comes from upbeat and positive human interest letters and success stories.

3 December 2020 Louisa May Alcott You have a good many little gifts and virtues, but there is no need of parading them, for conceit spoils the finest genius. There is not much danger that real talent or goodness will be overlooked long, and the great charm of all power is modesty.

3 December 2020 H. G. Wells No passion in the world is equal to the passion to alter someone else’s draft.
3 December 2020 David Suzuki We must reinvent a future free of blinders so that we can choose from real options.
