O. Henry
“True adventurers have never been plentiful. They who are set down in print as such have been mostly business men with newly invented methods. They have been out after the things they wanted - golden fleeces, holy grails, lady loves, treasures, crowns, and fame. The true adventurer goes forth aimless and uncalculating to meet and greet unknown fate. A fine example was the Prodigal Sob - when he started back home.”
O. Henry, The Four Million

Ernesto Che Guevara
“ذلك هو طراز الرجال الذين كانت تجري بهم الثورة. فهم في البدء ثوار على كل ظلم ، ثوار منفردون ينتهي بهم الأمر الى أن يعتادوا الانشغال بشؤونهم الشخصية الصغيرة دون الاهتمام بقلب النظام الاجتماعي. ولا تكاد الثورة ترخي لحظة قبضة مراقبتها بعض الشيء حتى يقعوا في الأخطاء التي تقودهم الى الجريمة بسهولة مذهلة
كان الظرف يقتضي قبضة حديدية. لقد كان يجب انزال عقوبة تكون عبرة لوضع حد لكل محاولة خروج على النظام وتصفية بؤر الفوضوية في تلك المناطق المحرومة من حكومة مستقرة”
Che Guevara, مذكرات أرنستو تشي جيفارا

Dennis Lehane
“Chuck said, "Fuck if I know."
Cawley stepped up beside them. "Quite similar to our clinical conclusion.”
Dennis Lehane, Shutter Island

William Gibson
“Because people who couldn’t imagine themselves capable of evil were at a major disadvantage in dealing with people who didn’t need to imagine, because they already were.”
William Gibson, The Peripheral

Harper Lee
“You can pet him, Mr. Arthur. He's asleep...”
Harper Lee, To Kill a Mockingbird
