More quotes by David Mitchell
Lying's wrong, but when the world spins backwards, a small wrong may be a big right.
David Mitchell
The her that lived in her looked out through her eyes, through my eyes, and at the me that lives in me.

Under the Enrichment Laws, consumers have to spend a fixed quota of dollars each month, depending on their strata. Hoarding is an anti-corpocratic crime.
David Mitchell
Secrets affect you more than you’d think. You lie to keep them hidden. You steer talk away from them. You worry someone’ll discover yours and tell the world. You think you are in charge of the secret, but isn’t it the secret who’s actually using you?
David Mitchell
How vulgar, this hankering after immortality, how vain, how false. Composers are merely scribblers of cave paintings. One writes music because winter is eternal and because, if one didn't, the wolves and blizzards would be at one's throat all the sooner.
David Mitchell

I have always unswervingly held, that God, in our civilizing world, manifests Himself not in the miracles of biblical age, but in progress. It is progress that leads humanity up the ladder towards the God-head. No Jacob's ladder this, no, but rather Civilization's Ladder, if you will.
David Mitchell
So little is actually worthy of belief or disbelief. Better to strive to coexist than seek to disapprove . . .
David Mitchell
Books don't offer real escape, but they can stop a mind scratching itself raw.
David Mitchell
Hate eats the hater the way ogres eat little boys.
David Mitchell
Leaves turned to soil beneath my feet. Thus it is, trees eat themselves.
David Mitchell
Women, O, women! They'll find the baddest meanin' in your words & hold it up.
David Mitchell
Memories are their own descendents masquerading as the ancestors of the present.
David Mitchell
- This isn't an interrogation or a trail. Your version of the truth is the only thing that matters. -Truth is singular. It's 'versions' are mistruths.
David Mitchell
... in a cycle as old as tribalism, ignorance of the Other engenders fear fear engenders hatred hatred engenders violence violence engenders further violence until the only rights, the only law, are whatever is willed by the most powerful.
David Mitchell
Faith, the least exclusive club on Earth, has the craftiest doorman.
David Mitchell
Go to hell, Willy, our souls eat poetry, but one has seven deadly sins to feed!
David Mitchell
Implausible truth can serve one better than plausible fiction
