Anne  Michaud
“For each of these women, the fear of the unknown — of leaving a marriage and casting off alone — may have bound them to a marriage where there is insensitivity, neglect, or even outright abuse. People learn intimacy at home, and when those early standards are set too low, a wife may second-guess her judgment about when and whether she should leave.”
Anne Michaud, Why They Stay: Sex Scandals, Deals, and Hidden Agendas of Eight Political Wives

Thomas Keneally
“That was travel, she supposed. A dance across surfaces to see the face of everything and learn the meaning of very little.”
Thomas Keneally

J.J. Sorel
“It took me a moment to speak. My heart pumped madly as though I’d run for miles in pursuit of something vital. In this case, love.”
J.J. Sorel, A Taste of Peace

Lynne Truss
“The reason to stand up for punctuation is that without it there is no reliable way of communicating meaning.”
Lynne Truss, Eats, Shoots & Leaves: The Zero Tolerance Approach to Punctuation

Behcet Kaya
“I hardly think so. If I was ashamed, I wouldn’t have testified on your behalf, admitting the truth that I was your father in front of the United States Naval Court. But, I don’t think now is the time to discuss these matters.”
Behcet Kaya, Murder on the Naval Base
