“Out of the crooked timber of humanity, no straight thing was ever made.”
Immanuel Kant
“Money is the worst drug of all.”

"Not everyone has a two income family & not everyone has help. Not everyone has money in a savings account to fall back on. Every parent does not have a reliable babysitter or a reliable vehicle.
Some people only have themselves. Some people live paycheque to paycheque.
These people also deserve respect.
The world is cruel enough as it is.
So, before telling people how they should deal with situations in their life, just don’t.
Show kindness instead.
Most of us are already doing the best that we can."
Anon

“Common sense & a sense of humour are the same thing moving at different speeds.
A sense of humour is just common sense dancing.
Clive James
“You have to write the book that wants to be written. And if the book will be too difficult for grown-ups, then you write it for children.”
Madeleine L’Engle
“The first people a dictator puts in jail are the writers, the teachers, the librarians – because these people are dangerous. They have enough vocabulary to recognise injustice & speak out loudly about it. Let us have the courage to go on being dangerous people.”
Madeleine L’Engle
