Quote by James Allen Moseley

“Ilsa approached the office of Dr. Dr. Bradford M. Bradford armed with her thesis. But she hesitated a moment before opening the outer door. Habit made her tremble before the awful majesty of the dean. Still, her recent adventures changed things. Had the dean ever hijacked a Spanish ship of the line? Run a British blockade at sea? Had he ever trudged over hill and dale to a Revolutionary army camp? Had he ever shaken hands with George Washington or flown a kite with Benjamin Franklin? Did he have an actual duke staying in his spare bedroom? She was pretty sure the dean would fail all these simple tests.”

“Travel unsettles the appropriate. You’re bound to be inappropriate. Which is probably why I don’t feel the intense embarrassment some do at not being able to speak foreign languages correctly. It seems to me that one of the privileges of travel is never to fit in. And not to fit in, not to be able to, is a kind of freedom. One of the freedoms that money can buy, like buying a hotel room in which one is psychologically unburdened and can act out guilty pleasures, capitalist ones, no doubt.”

“The shortest method to keep people away from Justice and Truth is to starve them. When individuals agree to do whatever to fill their stomachs, there will be little left of human ideals. Dungeons, Chains, Whistleblowers and sticks in the hands of Cowards come into play to starve them, not to let them even have a loaf of bread.”

“Since today Haiti beholds what unworthiness defines, one may ask intentionally, does the island of Haiti breed valiant creatures witty enough to respond insightfully to the danger that Illuminates their future? And has God's noble grace of heaven blessed Haiti's freedom in the world before she was; quite ready to make her entrance?”

“People never expose themselves totally to others. We always hold back parts of our true selves. Perhaps because we do not totally understand those parts ourselves. Or perhaps it is a survival instinct to hold something back. In that way we cannot be totally controlled, or imprisoned. But if we have computers connected to our brain, then those freedoms will disappear. Everything will be seen, and there will be no place for our stream of consciousness to hide.”
