S.J. Shank
“Roots that run so deep have no trouble piercing stone.”
S.J. Shank, Mountain Fast: A Gothic Tale of Medieval Horror

Jane Austen
“Oh! it is only a novel! ... only Cecilia, or Camilla, or Belinda;' or, in short, only some work in which the most thorough knowledge of human nature, the happiest delineation of its varieties, the liveliest effusions of wit and humour are conveyed to the world in the best chosen language.”
Jane Austen, Northanger Abbey
