"So far the story is nicely paced and moves fairly swiftly. Passages jump back and forth between 1917 the end of the revolution and 1913 before the changes. Progress remains slow only because of my eye." Sep 13, 2022 06:12AM

Bob Woodward
“The reality was that the United States in 2017 was tethered to the words and actions of an emotionally overwrought, mercurial and unpredictable leader. Members of his staff had joined to purposefully block some of what they believed were the president’s most dangerous impulses. It was a nervous breakdown of the executive power of the most powerful country in the world.”
Bob Woodward, Fear: Trump in the White House

Sue Grafton
“You can’t save others from themselves because those who make a perpetual muddle of their lives don’t appreciate your interfering with the drama they’ve created. They want your poor-sweet-baby sympathy, but they don’t want to change.”
Sue Grafton, T is for Trespass

Erick S. Gray
“Whatever you give a woman, she will make greater. If you give her sperm, she'll give you a baby.. If you give her a house, she'll give you a home. If you give her groceries, she'll give you a meal. If you give her a smile, she'll give you her heart. She multiplies and enlarges what is given to her. So, if you give her any crap, be ready to receive a ton of shit!”
Erick S. Gray

Shania Twain
“A friend is someone who knows the song in your heart and can sing it back to you when you have forgotten the words.”
Shania Twain, From This Moment On

John Boyne
“Perhaps it would be a good idea if everyone just stopped writing for a couple of years and allowed readers to catch up.”
John Boyne, A Ladder to the Sky
