Ken Follett
“They did not suspect her for a moment. It did not occur to them that a woman could be dangerous. How foolish they were. Women could do most of the things men did. Who was left in charge when the men were fighting wars, or going on crusades? There were women carpenters, dyers, tanners, bakers and brewers. Aliena herself was one of the most important merchants in the county. The duties of an abbess, running a nunnery, were exactly the same as those of an abbot. Why, it had been a woman, the Empress Maud, who caused the civil war that had gone on for fifteen years! Yet these wooden-headed men-at-arms did not expect a woman to be an enemy agent because it was not the normal thing.”
Ken Follett, The Pillars of the Earth

Kirsten Fullmer
“The big question was, what all was this society up to? They’d certainly been in and out of his office, as well as accidently running into him all around town. Had he inadvertently missed what this group of ladies knew? And worse yet, had he given himself away?”
Kirsten Fullmer, Problems at the Pub

William Hanna
“The toleration of racism and xenophobia by most westerners contradicts their delusional assumptions — the result of mass indoctrination — of belonging to civilised and enlightened democracies where religious and political leaders abide by the truth with freedom and justice prevailing over racial preference, class privilege, negative preconceptions, and cowardly conformity. Such repressive indoctrination facilitates either silent complicity, or active involvement in the unspeakable crimes being committed against most of humanity.”
William Hanna, The Grim Reaper

Kim Edwards
“Music is like you touch the pulse of the world. Music is always happening, and sometimes you get to touch it for a while, and when you do you know that everything’s connected to everything else.” Then”
Kim Edwards, The Memory Keeper's Daughter

Art Spiegelman
“A já myslel, že tě jako válečného zajatce propustili! Přesně tak... Mezinárodní právo nás trochu jako chránilo jako polské zajatce. Ale říšského Žida mohl zabít na ulici kdekdo!”
Art Spiegelman, The Complete Maus
