But for the person who took the time to hand you their pebble, it seems outrageous that you can't handle that one tiny thing. — Merlin Mann

When we look upon lives so human and yet so small... We feel the same kind of obligation to these creatures that a deity might feel... — Gilbert K. Chesterton
Typography is the craft of endowing human language with a durable visual form, and thus with an independent existence.

So long as the root lives, typography remains a source of true delight, true knowledge, true surprise. — Robert Bringhurst
The Roman arena was technically a level playing field. But on one side were the lions with all the weapons, and on the other the Christians with all the blood. That's not a level playing field.

There is no need to sally forth, for it remains true that those things which make us human are, curiously enough, always close at hand.
