“London and New York, and the hire car’s Sat Nav told her she had driven 252 miles since leaving the airport. A whole ocean and half a state lay between her and Tom. She should have been upset but instead she felt numb. Back in the UK it was four-thirty on a Sunday afternoon and she wondered what Tom was doing, then grimaced as she pictured him pottering around the house in his jogging bottoms and t-shirt. He would no doubt have called her closest friends, all innocence, asking if they knew where she was. How long would it take him to work out she had flown to America to look for the lakeside cabin she’d inherited from her great-” ― Gill Paul, The Secret Wife

“Fishes are the most primitive vertebrates (animals with backbones). They are a very varied group, with about 20,000 species, and they use gills to breathe and fins to swim. Some fishes live in the sea and some in fresh water; others migrate between these environments. Fishes first appeared about 500 million years ago. Most were small, jawless, and covered with heavy armor. In the Devonian period, often referred to as the Age of Fishes, fishes became numerous, and early representatives of the major living groups were present. Skeletons of fossil fishes can be abundant in certain areas, but it is more common to find isolated teeth, especially of sharks.” ― Paul D. Taylor, Fossil

“The girls were always trying to rope me in to their games, dressing me in costumes and making me perform in their plays. You have no idea how character-forming it is for a young boy to be forced to wear a wig and gown and have his cheeks rouged!” ― Gill Paul, The Secret Wife
“The books written by Paul Valéry, Walter Benjamin, Ludwig Wittgenstein, Marshall McLuhan, Gilles Deleuze, Douglas Hofstadter, and Niklas Luhmann can be understood as attempts to do justice to the New Media world at a level of technical depiction. And what is more: these books are no longer books in the strict sense of the word, but mosaics consisting of quotations and fragments of thought. They perform an art of writing which might be called cinematic - composing books as if they were movies. These books try to burst through the limits of the book form. Of course, most of these attempts have failed. But even this failure is instructive. The information processing system ‘book’ is clearly no longer up to the complexity of our social systems. For this reason, authors who are aware of this and yet want to remain authors, organise their books according to structures and patterns taken from nonlinear information processing systems (BoIz, 1994, p. 2).” ― Norbert Bolz

“Charles Drew graduated from Amherst College in 1926 but didn’t have enough money to go to medical school. So, for the next two years, he worked as a biology teacher and coach at Morgan College (now Morgan State University) in Baltimore. In 1928, with funds in hand, he attended medical school at McGill University in Montreal, graduating second in his class. In 1938, Drew received a Rockefeller fellowship to study at Columbia University and train at the Presbyterian Hospital in New York City, where he worked on a method for processing and storing plasma. (Plasma is serum that also contains the proteins necessary for clotting.) His research formed the basis of his thesis, titled “Banked Blood.” In 1940, Drew became the first director of an international program for the shipment of blood products. Called the Plasma for Britain program, Drew’s task was fraught with danger. Although it wasn’t hard to separate plasma from blood—even from the seventeen thousand units he had initially received—Drew had to make sure that not a single unit of plasma was contaminated with bacteria; otherwise, his shipments to Britain could be deadly. Plasma is a rich medium in which bacteria can grow. Drew also had to make clear on the label the type and source of the blood. Many white soldiers didn’t want to receive blood from African Americans. This was particularly distasteful to Drew, who was the first African American to receive a doctorate from Columbia. By the time the war ended in 1945, the American Red Cross had collected more than thirteen million units of blood (a unit is about one pint). Every unit was marked by race to distinguish its source. This was life in Jim Crow America.” ― Paul A. Offit, You Bet Your Life: From Blood Transfusions to Mass Vaccination, the Long and Risky History of Medical Innovation
