If you’re ever feeling down about yourself, remember that there are people who dedicate their entire lives to dismantling democracy and making vulnerable people less safe.
You could do absolutely nothing every single day and still be doing more good for the world than they are.

I know a lot of bookworms but I'm yet to meet one who likes gnawing people's entrails. Maybe it's just the particular kind of crowd I mix with.
When Lucy from Compass Books in Dartmouth, Devon, was victim to shoplifting people told her to install CCTV. Instead she put this ancient book thief curse on the wall from the Monastery of San Pedro in Barcelona so book stealers would be consumed by "the flames of hell" with "their members blasted".
