“The Goblin Shark isn’t the first ship that Reznik has sailed on—far from it. Ever since he picked himself up out of the dirt of the Badlands and walked out to the Red Ocean near the island of Sudrabi, he never looked back. His life had been a constant procession of new ships ever since. Some he takes by force, like The Goblin Shark. Some of them take him on as crew, but all of these have discovered very quickly that they made a mistake”
G.D. Penman, Chibuzo: The Goblin Shark

“There are a few unfortunate souls on the streets as she waddles along, but every one of them swerves out of her way. It isn't clear whether Mama's height is a result of some aftermath of the big war or if, as she maintains, she comes from a long line of short people, but either way her elbows are always level with something soft and delicate and she has no compunctions about lashing out at anyone that gets too close.”
G.D. Penman

“middle managers were necessary to a business in the same way that mosquitos were necessary to a functional ecosystem. They would both have no noticeable impact if they were removed.”
G. D. Penman, Dungeons of Strata

“Well rested” wasn’t usually a status effect that he managed to achieve in real life, relying far more often on “Over-caffeinated.”
G.D. Penman, Dungeons of Strata

“middle managers were necessary to a business in the same way that mosquitos were necessary to a functional ecosystem. They would both have no noticeable impact if they were removed.”
G. D. Penman, Dungeons of Strata

“Can a magician kill a man by magic?” Lord Wellington asked Strange.
Strange frowned. He seemed to dislike the question. “I suppose a magician might,” he admitted, “but a gentleman never could.”
Susanna Clarke, Jonathan Strange & Mr Norrell
