Frank Miller
“I take his weapons away from him. Both of them.”
Frank Miller, Sin City, Vol. 4: That Yellow Bastard

Joseph Heller
“Being born with a sickly resemblance to Henry Fonda was the first of a long series of practical jokes of which destiny was to make Major Major the unhappy victim throughout his joyless life. Being born Major Major Major was the second”
Joseph Heller, Catch-22

Tom Clancy
“Courage is being the only only one who knows how terrified you are.”
Tom Clancy, Red Rabbit

Ayn Rand
“People don't want to think. And the deeper they get into trouble, the less they want to think. But by some sort of instinct, they feel that they ought to and it makes them feel guilty. So they'll bless and follow anyone who gives them a justification for not thinking. Anyone who makes a virtue - a highly intellectual virtue - out of what they know to be their sin, their weakness and their guilt... They envy achievement, and their dream of greatness is a world where all men have become their acknowledged inferiors. They don't know that that dream is the infallible proof of mediocrity, because that sort of world is what the man of achievement would not be able to bear”
Ayn Rand, Atlas Shrugged

Virginia Woolf
“And the poem, I think, is only your voice speaking.”
Virginia Woolf, The Waves
