― Margaret Atwood

Nina George
“Memories are like wolves. You can’t lock them away and hope they leave you alone.”
― Nina George, The Little Paris Bookshop

Markus Zusak

“This is the man who left the message,” said Campbell. “He sells questions.” “Actually, I’ve moved on from questions,” said the salesman. “People simply aren’t inquisitive enough these days.” He shook his head sadly. “I’m now in the business of selling after-life insurance.”
― Gareth P. Jones, Death or Ice Cream?

― Barry Schwartz, The Paradox of Choice: Why More Is Less
