Quote by Margaret Atwood

“Com que vaig néixer el 1939 i vaig començar a tenir ús de raó durant la Segona Guerra Mundial, sabia que els règims establerts podien desaparèixer d'un dia per l'altre, i que els canvis podien ser fulgurants.

Hope leads us to more, better, greater things-- maybe not the ideal, the fantasy, even the very thing you hope for-- but more, better, greater than would otherwise be.”
