    Therisa Peimer
    “Aurelia frowned. "Are you saying that you hang around the women at court to gather intel?" "Oh, Your Grace, you are quick on the uptake," he said with an impressed look on his face. "It's not fair. Flaminius always gets the hot ones. Does he have to get the smart ones too?”

    “Wat zijn dat, Creb?’ gebaarde Ayla, zwijgend omhoog wijzend. ‘Vuren in de hemel. Elk ervan is de vuurplaats van iemands geest in de andere wereld.’ ‘Zijn er zóveel mensen?’ ‘Het zijn de vuren van alle mensen die naar de wereld der geesten zijn overgegaan en van alle mensen die nog niet geboren zijn.”

    Anthony Burgess
    “Юность не вечна, о да. И потом, в юности ты всего лишь вроде как животное, что ли. Нет, даже не животное, а скорее какая-нибудь игрушка, что продаются на каждом углу, – вроде как жестяной человечек с пружиной внутри, которого ключиком снаружи заведешь – др-др-др, и он пошел вроде как сам по себе, бллин. Но ходит он только по прямой и на всякие vestshi натыкается – бац, бац, к тому же если уж он пошел, то остановиться ни за что не может. В юности каждый из нас похож на такую malennkuju заводную shtutshku.”
    ― Anthony Burgess, A Clockwork Orange

    David Guterson
    “He had watched her, after all, mourn her husband's death and it had been for her in part the discovery that grief could attach itself with permanence - something Ishmael had already discovered. It attached itself and then it burrowed inside and made a nest and stayed. It ate whatever was warm nearby, and then the coldness settled in permanently. You learned to live with it.”
    ― David Guterson, Snow Falling on Cedars
