    “Scott could feel the contents of his stomach flip over and over on themselves. He turned to the side and retched, frothy yellow bile spilled out onto the newspaper covered floor, filling the room with the putrid stench of previously ingested alcohol.

    'Look's like someone can't hold their drink,' McBlane said, and Dominic and Shugg laughed.

    Scott was still staring at the steam rising from his evacuated stomach contents as he heard the hammer fall. The dull crack of bone splintering under its weight.”
    R.D. Ronald, The Elephant Tree

    Walt Whitman
    “My lovers suffocate me! Crowding my lips, and thick in the pores of my skin, Jostling me through streets and public halls...coming naked to me at night, Crying by day Ahoy from the rocks of the river...swinging and chirping over my head, Calling my name from flowerbeds or vines or tangled underbrush, Or while I swim in the bath....or drink from the pump on the corner....or the curtain is down at the opera.....or I glimpse at a woman’s face in the railroad car; Lighting on every moment of my life, Bussing my body with soft and balsamic busses, Noiselessly passing handfuls out of their hearts and giving them to be mine”
    Walt Whitman

    Erich Maria Remarque
    “We are little flames poorly sheltered by frail walls against the storm of dissolution and madness, in which we flicker and sometimes almost go out…we creep in upon ourselves and with big eyes stare into the night…and thus we wait for morning.”

    J. Rose Black
    “He grimaced and went after her. “I’m not a trainer. Just spent a lot of time working out.” 

    “Misspent youth, clearly.” She held the door open, standing just outside. 

    “My application to princess school was rejected.” Callan exited the building and fell into step alongside her. “Working out was how I coped.”

    Sunlight peeked out from behind striped clouds and lit the early-morning sky. Autumn weather chilled the perspiration on his skin. 

    “Such a shame.” Meridian glanced up at him out of the corner of her eye. 

    “What is?” 

    “That you didn’t go to princess school. Could have learned some manners.” Her blue-green eyes sparked in the sunlight. And her mouth . . . Her lips set in some smart-looking, lopsided grin, with a small dimple. 

    I should definitely kiss that look off her face.

    “Overrated. Inefficient. And I look terrible in a tiara.”
    J. Rose Black, Losing My Breath

    “There are so many wild animals on the property. It makes the ashram Noah’s Arkish. All the wildlife is intact; watching the animals adds to the safety and rescue aspects of the ashram. The ashram’s pristine environment along with
its celibacy policy and abundance of food is like a Garden of Eden. Like starting over! You forget about sex and spending your whole paycheck on organic apples.”
    Tom Hillman, Digging for God

    Sara Pascoe
    “When I'm hung-over I try to imagine being old and look- ing back fondly on now, on this bit I'm currently living, and how in retrospect it might seem adventurous. In the future when I only ever sit in a chair because I'm too gnarled for pleasure or movement I'll remember when I stayed out all night and had life-changing conversations and walked all the way home because I lost my phone.”
    Sara Pascoe, Weirdo

    Karl Marx
    “It is a pure tautology to say that crises are provoked by a lack of effective demand or effective consumption. The capitalist system does not recognize any forms of consumer other than those who can pay, if we exclude the consumption of paupers and swindlers. The fact that commodities are unsaleable means no more than that no effective buyers have been found for them, i.e. no consumers (no matter whether the commodities are ultimately sold to meet the needs of productive or individual consumption).”
    Karl Marx, Capital: Critique of Political Economy, Vol 2

    Charlotte Bronte, Jane Eyre

    C.S. Lewis
    “They have chosen cunning instead of belief. Their prison is only in their minds, yet they are in that prison; and so afraid of being taken in that they cannot be taken out.”
    C.S. Lewis, The Last Battle
