Jasper Fforde
“Okay, this is the wisdom. First, time spent on reconnaissanse is never wasted. Second, almost anything can be improved with the addition of bacon. And finally, there is no problem on Earth that can't be ameliorated by a hot bath and a cup of tea.”
Jasper Fforde, Shades of Grey

Hubert Selby Jr.
“There was a problem and that was that. Why didnt make a fiddlers fuck.”
Hubert Selby Jr., Requiem for a Dream
