    “The Lord Steward summoned Lord James to his study. Joining
    them were Lord Nimrod, the Consort, and Judith, who stood beside
    the Consort and stared out the window. A winter sunrise streaked the
    sky with pink-and-gold light. Judith wrestled with her anguish. This is
    probably Helen’s last sunrise, and she’s no doubt in some stinking hole and
    cannot even see it.
    Lord James paid little heed to anyone else. All he saw was Miriam’s
    face, her green eyes harsh with accusation. All he heard were her pleas.
    Do something, James. Save her. Don’t let her die.
    Thinking he had everyone’s attention, Shinar got to the point. “It
    seems you have a daughter, James.”
    Candace L. Talmadge, Stoneslayer: Book One Scandal

    “Then the mob parted and there was the boy, with his arms twisted behind his back and the foot of a man, a petrol attendant in Cohydro cap and uniform, stamped firmly on his neck. The boy’s mouth was bleeding and the side of his face was squashed flat on the uneven concrete of the forecourt. It was a scene I had witnessed numerous times during my stint covering Africa. Quick and brutal, African mob justice is a terrifying thing.”
    Tim Butcher, Blood River: A Journey to Africa's Broken Heart

    Gregory Maguire
    “There were a great many jokes about the disaster (house falling on and killing Wicked Witch of the East), naturally. "You can't hide from desinty, that house had her name on it" "That Nessarose, she was giving such a good speech about religious lessons, she really brought down the house!" "Everybody needs to grow up and leave home sometimes, but sometimes HOME DOESN'T LIKE IT." "What's the different between a shooting star and a falling house?" "One which is propitious grants delicious wishes, the other which is vicious squishes witches." "What's big, thick, makes the earth move, and wants to have its way with you?" "I don't know, but can you introduce me?”
    Gregory Maguire
