Frequently Asked Questions

What kind of quotes are gathered on the "World" page?
A thoughtful mix — from the surprising origin of the word "Amen" in Western prayer, to feeling that "our world was very atomized" after moving to a new city, to an obsession with novels like 'War and Peace' that portrayed a world with a strong social fabric.
Are these quotes optimistic or critical about the world?
Mostly reflective and a little critical — several point out something missing or changed, like a more connected past captured in old novels versus a more fragmented present. If you want something more upbeat about the world, Good quotes or Great quotes might suit better.
