“What do you believe?
I believe that the last and the first suffer equally. Pari passu.
Equally?
It is not alone in the dark of death that all souls are one soul.
Of what would you repent?

― Cormac McCarthy, Suttree

― Paul Auster, The Invention of Solitude

“When they got back into the carriage they felt greater strangers than before.”
― Émile Zola, Thérèse Raquin

“...occasionally some of the mothers did see fit to bring their young children along to practice the valuable life skill of standing on the side of the road with indignation.”
