Quote on Failure and Setbacks by Salman Rushdie
Previous Quote
"Friendships are the family we make - not the one we inherit. I've always been someone to whom friendship, elective affinities, is as important as family."

"In any authoritarian society, the possessor of power dictates, and if you try and step outside, he will come after you. This is equally true of Sovietism, of China and of Iran, and in our time it has happened a lot in Islam. The point is that it's worse when the authoritarianism is supported by something supernatural."
