Have you ever observed that we pay much more attention to a wise passage when it is quoted than when we read it in the original author?
Philip Gilbert Hamerton
The book of your revolution sits in the pit of your belly, young Indian. Crap it out, and read.Instead of which, they're all sitting in front of color TVs and watching cricket and shampoo advertisements.
Aravind Adiga

Alice Walker
Here dead we lie because we did not choose To live and shame the land from which we sprung. Life, to be sure, is nothing much to lose; But young men think it is, and we were young.
A. E. Housman

Eduardo Galeano
