    Thomas Hardy
    “Sometimes I feel I don't want to know anything more about [history] than I know already. [...] Because what's the use of learning that I am one of a long row only--finding out that there is set down in some old book somebody just like me, and to know that I shall only act her part; making me sad, that's all. The best is not to remember that your nature and you past doings have been kist like thousands' and thousands', and that your coming life and doings'll be like thousands' and thousands'. [...] I shouldn't mind learning why--why the sun do shine on the just and the unjust alike, [...] but that's what books will not tell me.”
    Thomas Hardy, Tess of the D’Urbervilles

    Стефан Цанев
    “Е, тука не мога да се въздържа да не извикам: аман от освободители!
    Тръгне ли една държава да завладява друга държава, тя непременно
    обявява, че отива да я освобождава. Така Александър Велики освободи почти целия свят, римляните освободиха траките така, че помен от тях не остана, Наполеон освободи цяла Европа,
    Хитлер тръгна да освобождава Съветския съюз от комунизма, Сталин пък
    освободи Германия от фашизма, византийците ни освободиха от руснаците през 971 година и два века влачихме ярема на тази свобода, руснаците пък ни освободиха незнайно от
    кого през 1944 година и то така хубаво ни освободиха, че едвам се
    освободихме от свободата им... Напоследък пък американците тръгнаха да освобождават света - освободиха
    Виетнам, съвсем наскоро - в края на миналия век - освободиха Югославия и
    тя, горката, още не може да се съвземе от това освобождение; сега
    освобождават Ирак, горко му!...
    Въобще, прав се оказва Дяконът Левски като казва: „Който ни освободи, ще
    ни пороби, казвам ви!" - тези думи ние, българите, дето все чакаме някой
    да ни освободи, трябва да си ги запишем с нож на челото...
    Затова - тръгне ли някой да те освобождава, народе мой, грабвай оръжието
    и се защитавай до последна капка кръв!”
    Стефан Цанев, Български хроники, том 1

    Markus Zusak
    “How about a kiss, Saumensch?"

    He stood waist-deep in the water for a few moments longer before climbing out and handing her the book. His pants clung to him, and he did not stop walking. In truth, I think he was afraid. Rudy Steiner was scared of the book thief's kiss. He must have longed for it so much. He must have loved her so incredibly hard. So hard that he would never ask for her lips again and would go to his grave without them.”
    Markus Zusak, The Book Thief

    Markus Zusak
    “A SMALL PIECE OF TRUTH
    I do not carry a sickle or scythe.
    I only wear a hooded black robe when it's cold.
    And I don't have those skull-like facial features you seem to enjoy pinning on me from a distance. You want to know what I truly look like? I'll help you out. Find yourself a mirror while I continue.”
    Markus Zusak, The Book Thief

    George Orwell
    “Man is the only creature that consumes without producing. He does not give milk, he does not lay eggs, he is too weak to pull the plough, he cannot run fast enough to catch rabbits. Yet he is lord of all the animals. He sets them to work, he gives back to them the bare minimum that will prevent them from starving, and the rest he keeps for himself.”
    George Orwell, Animal Farm

    “You must accept the reality of other people. You think that reality is up for negotiation, that we think it's whatever you say it is. You must accept that we are as real as you are; you must accept that you are not God.”

    J.K. Rowling
