Don DelilloRead

Tom JunodRead
I believe if there's any kind of God it wouldn't be in any of us, not you or me but just this little space in between.

The answer must be in the attempt.
Richard LinklaterRead

If space is infinite, we may be at any point in space. If time is infinite, we may be at any point in time.
Jorge Luis BorgesRead
Something must always remain that eludes us ... For power to have an object on which it can be exercised, a space in which to stretch out its arms ... As long as I know there exists in the world someone who does tricks only for the love of the trick, as long as I know there is a woman who loves reading for reading's sake, I can convince myself that the world continues ... And every evening I, too, abandon myself to reading, like that distant unknown woman.
Italo CalvinoRead

Oprah WinfreyRead
The poet alone knows astronomy, chemistry, vegetation, and animation, for he does not stop at these facts, but employs them as signs. He knows why the plain, or meadow of space, was strown with these flowers we call suns, and moons, and stars; why the deep is adorned with animals, with men, and gods; for, in every word he speaks he rides on them as the horses of thought.
Ralph Waldo EmersonRead
We go into rural communities and all we do, like has been done in this room, is create the space. When these girls sit, you unlock intelligence, you unlock passion, you unlock commitment, you unlock focus, you unlock great leaders.
Leymah GboweeRead
The cemetery is an open space among the ruins, covered in winter with violets and daisies. It might make one in love with death, to think that one should be buried in so sweet a place.

There's really no precedent for someone like me gaining clout in the space that I'm in - a black woman directing films in Hollywood.
Ava DuvernayRead
When it comes to the things that people really want in science fiction - like space travel - the simplest things end up causing them not to happen. Humans are 100-pound bags of water, built to live on Earth.
