“Writers and politicians are natural rivals. Both groups try to make the world in their own images; they fight for the same territory.”
- Salaman Rushdie (b. 1947) Indian-born British author: quoted in “The Observer” (London), February 19, 1989.
“Mistakes are, after all, the foundations of truth, and if a man does not know what a thing is, it is at least an increase in knowledge if he knows what it is not.”
- Carl Jung (1875 – 1961), Swiss psychiatrist: ‘Aion’ (1951), reprinted in “Collected Works”, edited by William McGuire, Vol IX, 1959.
“You must learn to be still in the midst of activity and to be vibrantly alive in repose.”
- Indira Gandhi (1917 –1984), Indian politician and prime minister: quoted in “People” (New York), June 30, 1975.
