    “Where’s everybody? I thought you had started production.”
“They’ve got a day off, but don’t worry you’ll see the machinery is here.”
But Brown was worried. As they entered the canteen, the lights came on
automatically. There was nobody there.
“What’s going…...” but he never finished the sentence. Brown felt a sharp pain on the
side of his head and everything went black.”

    “Diabolical. You’re a scoundrel in tasteful athleisure wear.”

    “Water continued to explain about the life of the tree. “Trees can be as big below the ground as they are above it. And there are mother trees in the forests—these are the oldest trees. They have the most connections with the other trees. Trees communicate with each other and look after the young trees by sending them nutrients through their roots.”

    Michael G. Kramer
    “The Geneva peace accords said that it recognized the nationality and fundamental rights of the Vietnamese people including their sovereignty, their territory and unity. Due to the Geneva Conference allowing the imperialist combined forces of the Franco-USA coalition, on the one hand to hold South Vietnam under the 17th parallel and allowing the National resistance by the People of Vietnam to hold the north on the other, it stopped the Vietnamese from completely liberating their country. (Vein, 2009)”

    John Grogan
    “Era indubbio, la vita senza un cane era più facile e immensamente più semplice. Potevamo andare via per il fine settimana senza dover prenotare il canile. Potevamo uscire a cena senza preoccuparci di quale cimelio di famiglia sarebbe stato in pericolo questa volta. I bambini potevano mangiare senza dover fare la guardia ai loro piatti. La pattumiera non doveva più essere posata sul balcone della cucina quando uscivamo. Potevamo di nuovo rilassarci e goderci il magnifico spettacolo di un bel temporale. Io apprezzavo soprattutto la libertà di muovermi per la casa senza una gigantesca calamita gialla incollata alle calcagna.
    Eppure, come famiglia, ci mancava qualcosa.”
    ― John Grogan, Io & Marley

    “Dear God,' I said inside myself, 'when I came here, maybe I was partly running off from home for fun and freedom and adventure. But I have a notion that You had something else in mind in letting me come. Anyway if You can use me here in this Cove, well, here I am.”

    William Golding
    “... what makes things break up like they do?"
    Piggy rubbed his glasses slowly and thought. When he understood how far Ralph had gone towards accepting him he flushed pinkly with pride.
    "I dunno, Ralph. I expect it's him."
    "Jack?"
    "Jack." A taboo was evolving round that word too.
    Ralph nodded solemnly.
    "Yes," he said, "I suppose it must be.”
    ― Golding William, Lord of the Flies
