"We don't always get to choose what we love."

--

Scott Westerfeld

“Liberty is security. Freedom is security.”
“This writer, who is horribly perspicacious and vigorous, demonstrates the certainty of a great European war, and regards it with the peculiar satisfaction excited by such things in a certain order of mind. His phrases about "dire calamity" and so on mean nothing; the whole tenor of his writing proves that he represents, and consciously, one of the forces which go to bring war about; his part in the business is a fluent irresponsibility, which casts scorn on all who reluct at the "inevitable." Persistent prophecy is a familiar way of assuring the event.”
“But then every man is ludicrous if you look at him from outside, without taking into account whatâ€™s going on in his heart and mind.”
“Real sacrifice comes from self sacrifice.”
“When Mrs. Jinnah feels cold, she will say so, and ask for a wrap herself.”
“I would contend that we place no other value above the right to be free. We will die for our freedom. In fact, we believe freedom is sufficiently important that we will even die so that others around the globe might be free.”
“If you want to make an easy job seem mighty hard, just keep putting off doing it.”
“I continue to evolve as a human, I see things differently everyday so it's sure my songs will continue to change and it's a really good thing. It's nice to listen to my music and remember why I made it.”
