Deutsche Übersetzung

Warum haben Fanatiker so große Angst vor der Ausbildung von Mädchen? Denn es gibt keine stärkere Kraft, um eine Gesellschaft zu verändern. Die größte Bedrohung für den Extremismus sind nicht Drohnen, die Raketen abfeuern, sondern Mädchen, die Bücher lesen.

Walnuts are so rich. I also love that you can chew them for five minutes. Then I eat a couple of golden raisins as a palate cleanser because they are really tart, and then more walnuts. It's a great snack for me.

The great end of education is to discipline rather than to furnish the mind; to train it to the use of its own powers, rather than fill it with the accumulation of others.

I like to deal with EVERY aspect of our condition, and that means terror and humor in equal mix. Some books have more room for humor than others.
