Gregory Maguire
“Such silly things, children -- and so embarrassing -- because they keep changing themselves out of shame, out of a need to be loved or something. While animals are born who they are, accept it, and that is that. They live with greater peace than people do.”
Gregory Maguire, Wicked: The Life and Times of the Wicked Witch of the West

Fyodor Dostoevsky
“We don't understand that life is heaven, for we have only to understand that and it will at once be fulfilled in all its beauty, we shall embrace each other and weep.”
Fyodor Dostoevsky, The Brothers Karamazov

E.M. Forster
“Most of life is so dull that there is nothing to be said about it, and the books and talk that would describe it as interesting are obliged to exaggerate, in the hope of justifying their own existence. Inside its cocoon of work or social obligation, the human spirit slumbers for the most part, registering the distinction between pleasure and pain, but not nearly as alert as we pretend. There are periods in the most thrilling day during which nothing happens, and though we continue to exclaim 'I do enjoy myself' or 'I am horrified' we are insincere. 'As far as I feel anything, it is enjoyment, horror' - it's no more than that really, and a perfectly adjusted organism would be silent.”
E.M. Forster, A Passage to India

Philip K. Dick
“I like her; I could watch her the rest of my life. She has breasts that smile.”
Philip K. Dick, Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?

Markus Zusak
“She could smell the pages. She could almost taste the words as they stacked up around her.”
Markus Zusak, The Book Thief
