Author: David Hughes

My name is David Hughes, and while my career has been rooted in Chemical Engineering, my true passion lies in literature and the art of collecting quotes. I’ve always been fascinated by the way words can shape perspectives, evoke emotions, and capture the essence of human experience in just a few lines. Born and raised in Maryland, USA, I’ve had the privilege of working with Chevron in Malaysia, Finland, and India, immersing myself in different cultures and perspectives along the way. These experiences have only deepened my love for literature, as I’ve seen firsthand how words—whether in poetry, prose, or simple expressions—transcend borders. For me, collecting quotes isn’t just a hobby; it’s a way of preserving wisdom, emotion, and beauty in their most distilled forms. Whether it’s a line from a classic novel, a profound thought from a philosopher, or an unexpected truth found in everyday conversation, I believe that words have the power to connect us all.
