The next morning she reads in Publishers Marketplace that a novel on along identical lines just sold for an astronomical sum at auction. (If that's not a horror story, I don't know what is; fortunately, this is a fictional answer.) (less)

“Because who does not thirst for freedom? Who does not hunger to believe his own life is worth as much as another's?”
Mamta Chaudhry, Haunting Paris

“Remembering these mute witnesses, I realize why the perpetrators tried to destroy all records of their crimes: More terrible than vengeance, more enduring than the verdicts of men, is the final judgment of history.”
Mamta Chaudhry, Haunting Paris

“The steam from their cups of cocoa clouds the window, like breath on glass, which in the end is all that separates the living from the dead.”
Mamta Chaudhry, Haunting Paris

“Every journey ends; terminates, at some pier, some mist-shrouded wharf, where torches are waiting.”
Hilary Mantel, Wolf Hall

“Love is not love which alters it when alteration finds, or bends with the remover to remove: O no! It is an ever fixed mark that looks on tempests and is never shaken; it is the star to every wandering bark whose worth's unknown, although his height be taken. Love's not Time's fool, though rosy lips and cheeks within his bending sickle's compass come: Love alters not with his brief hours and weeks, but bears it out, even to the edge of doom.”
William Shakespeare, Shakespeare's Sonnets
