Victor Hugo
“The archdeacon silently contemplated the gigantic building for a while, then sighed as he stretched out his right hand towards the printed book lying open on his table and his left hand towards Notre-Dame, and looked sadly from the book to the church. ‘Alas!’ he said, ‘this will kill that.”
Victor Hugo, The Hunchback of Notre Dame

Heather Havrilesky
“Have lunch, have coffee, and continue to work hard on the things that won’t dry up and blow away: Your health, your career, your little art projects or poems or essays, your odd new half-interests, the complicated folds of your sensitivity and your darkness, and your belief in a world that wants you to be happy.”
Heather Havrilesky

“Every historian wants to know what really happened in the past. That means- at a minimum- gaining access to records, the more detailed and accurate, the closer to the actual events, the better. But in our hearts we always want more than we can ever have: We want to read documents that are lost forever; to interview people long dead; to be eyewitness to the great events that changed the course of history. We want that in part because we want to solve mysteries, we do want to know the truth about the past.”
Byron Hollinshead, I Wish I'd Been There, Book Two: European History

T.J. Klune
“He didn’t know what was worse, the fact that he was a Gothic Repressed Suburban White Kid or the fact that he didn’t know he was one.”
T.J. Klune, How to Be a Normal Person

Sōji Shimada
“I'm a huge fan of mysteries; in fact, they're almost an addiction. If a week goes by without reading a mystery, I suffer withdrawal symptoms. Then I wander around like I'm sleepwalking and wake up in a bookshop, looking for a mystery novel. I've read just about every mystery story ever written...but it's not an intellectual pursuit; it's more like me getting my fill of gossip.”
Sōji Shimada, The Tokyo Zodiac Murders
