    Max Nowaz
    “Inside he was hurt. Not so much with Linda, but his failure to impress women generally with his abilities. There she was, an example: lending – no, giving –thirty thousand pounds to a smooth-talking old bastard, but she would not part with a penny to him after living with him for a year or more.”
    Max Nowaz, Get Rich or Get Lucky

    Michael G. Kramer
    “John F Kennedy (President Elect) was at the White house in order to confer with his predecessor Dwight Eisenhower. He was told to wait while the President of the United States of America attended to some necessary items. After a time, John was escorted into the Oval Office, and he found himself directly in front of the out-going president. So it was that the conversation between two of the most powerful men on earth began.”

    Todor Bombov
    “The dream of all peoples—a world without weapons, a world without wars—despite any initiatives, no matter whether they are strategic or not, is only a utopia within the contemporary content of the State. Nowadays, the State is the biggest, the most powerful criminal organization of continuous robbery of social labor. The State is a mafia today, in which the basic principle is the “law” omertá—“who’s not mum, is dead!” Now the State is the final phase of the organized criminality. It is “a conspiracy of the rich” (Thomas More), where because of the judicial astrology, “in every situation, powerful rogues know how to save themselves at the expense of the feeble” (Jean-Jacque Rousseau). Until now, the class society represents a power of one family that divided for itself the state as private property!”

    Frank Miller
    “Тишина трескается и рассыпается. Раздается гул восьмицилиндрового движка - утробный, словно рык льва.

    Выйди прямо на свет, как порядочный гражданин. Старайся дышать ровно.

    Пальцы нащупывают в кармане холодную тяжелую вещицу. Надеюсь, доставать ее не придется.”
    Frank Miller, Sin City, Vol. 5: Family Values

    Jalal ad-Din Muhammad ar-Rumi
    “The minute I heard my first love story,
    I started looking for you, not knowing
    how blind that was.
    Lovers don't finally meet somewhere.
    They're in each other all along.”
    Mawlana Jalal-al-Din Rumi, The Illuminated Rumi

    Thomas  Harris
    “I know what you're afraid of. It's not pain, or solitude. It's indignity you can't stand, Hannibal, you're like a cat that way.”
    Thomas Harris, The Silence of the Lambs

    Ovid
    “My vessel is launched on the boundless main and my sails are spread to the wind ! In the whole of the world there is nothing that stays unchanged. All is in flux. Any shape that is formed is constantly shifting.
    Time itself flows steadily by in perpetual motion. Think of a river: no river can ever arrest its current, nor can the fleeting hour. But as water is forced downstream
    by the water behind it and presses no less on the water ahead, so time is in constant flight and pursuit, continually new. The present turns into the past and the future replaces the present; every moment that passes is new and eternally changing.”
    Ovid, Metamorphoses

    Carl Bernstein
    “The invariable question, asked only half-mockingly of reporters by editors at the Post (and then up the hierarchical line of editors) was 'What have you done for me today?' Yesterday was for the history books, not newspapers.

    -- Carl Bernstein, Bob Woodward”
    Carl Bernstein, All the President’s Men
