I started coming up to New York at age 17. There was a girl I met over the summer somewhere; I was chasing her. I would drive up to D.C., where I had made some friends, which was about four hours away, and we would take the bus up to New York. Garth Risk Hallberg Read Quote

When I visited Guantanamo Bay several years ago, I met a team of psychiatrists treating the detainees. When I asked how they distinguished between, say, schizophrenia or bipolarity and a bedrock religious commitment to holy war, they couldn’t answer. Monica Crowley Read Quote
You tell me the truth, and I am hooked for life, because the one thing that you can’t find nowadays is the person who is going to be absolutely honest with you. Jessica White Read Quote
