Annie Proulx
“The old forests are going and once they are gone we will have to wait a thousand years or more to see their like. Though nothing will be allowed such a generous measure of time to grow.”
Annie Proulx, Barkskins

Stephanie Perkins
“The grapes are smaller than I’m used to, and the skin is slightly textured. Is that dirt? I dip my napkin in water and dab at the tiny purple globes. It helps, but they’re still sort of rough. Hmm. St. Clair and Meredith stop talking. I glance up to find them staring at me in matching bemusement.
“What?”
“Nothing,” he says. “Continue your grape bath.”
Stephanie Perkins, Anna and the French Kiss

Frederick Forsyth
“The technique of beaming a ray on to window glass and reading from the vibrations the conversation going on inside had been used against the American embassy in Moscow in the Cold War and required the reconstruction of the entire building.”
Frederick Forsyth, The Kill List

Daphne du Maurier
“I thought about being placid, how quiet and comfortable it sounded, someone with knitting on her lap, with calm unruffled brow. Someone who was never anxious, never tortured by doubt and indecision, someone who never stood as I did, hopeful, eager, frightened, tearing at bitten nails, uncertain which way to go, what star to follow.”
Daphne du Maurier, Rebecca

Jon Krakauer
“I don’t want to know what time it is. I don’t want to know what day it is or where I am. None of that matters.”
Jon Krakauer, Into the Wild
