“What i took away from witnessing the broken climbers in Moshi was this: *Everything is easy until it isn't.*”
Josh Gates, Destination Truth: Memoirs of a Monster Hunter

Jeffrey Whittam
“This is a story of Africa. A pioneer woman's journey north was merely the beginning.”
Jeffrey Whittam, Sons of Africa

Beryl Markham
“What a child does not know and does not want to know of race and colour and class, he learns soon enough as he grows to see each man flipped inexorably into some predestined groove like a penny or a sovereign in a banker's rack. Kibii, the Nandi boy, was my good friend. Arab Ruta (the same boy grown to manhood), who sits before me, is my good friend, but the handclasp will be shorter, the smile will not be so eager on his lips, and though the path is for a while the same, he will walk behind me now, when once, in the simplicity of our nonage, we walked together.”
Beryl Markham, West with the Night

Jared Diamond
“(On the beginning of the mid-1990s' genocidal war in Rwanda:)

Within six weeks, an estimated 800,000 Tutsi, representing about three-quarters of the Tutsi then remaining in Rwanda, or 11% of Rwanda's total population, had been killed.”
Jared Diamond, Collapse: How Societies Choose to Fail or Succeed

Christopher Hitchens
“When people have tried everything and have discovered that nothing works, they will tend to revert to what they know best—which will often be the tribe, the totem, or the taboo.”
Christopher Hitchens
