“He used his large shoulders and movements to impose his dominance over others as he strutted around but his facial expressions were a giveaway to people like Maeve who was born into a gritty group of native born fighting Irish. While many saw him as a man who worked his way up to power and influence and attained success that others fail to achieve, she saw him as a sham. He didn’t acquire loyalty by goodwill, but by corruption, fear, and loathing.”
A.G. Russo, The Cases Nobody Wanted

Jorge Luis Borges
“مصـراعی سـت از شعـر ورلن
.که من دیگـر به خاطـر نمـی آورم

خـیابانی سـت در این نزدیکی
.که من دیگـر گـذرم به آن نمی افـتـد

آینـه ای سـت که برای آخـرین بار در من نگریسـته اسـت

دری سـت که من آن را برای ابد بسـته ام

در میـان ِ کتـب ِ کتابخـانه ام
کتـاب هـایی هسـتند که من دیگر هـرگز نخـواهم گشـود

:تابستان امسـال پنجاه ساله خواهم شد
...مـرگ ، بی وقـفـه مرا غـارت می کنـد”
Jorge Luis Borges

Dorothy Allison
“Before I published any of my own stories, I read a great many stories by people as passionate about writing as I was, and I learned something from everyone I read -- something most important what I should not try to write.”
Dorothy Allison, Trash

Marjane Satrapi
“I've never seen or touched anything."
"Can you explain then how you had children?"
"You're right. It's true I have four kids. Four! But still I have never seen the male organ. He came into the bedroom, he turned off the light, and then Bam! Bam! Bam! and voila I was pregnant! What's more, I was granted four girls. So I have never seen penises.”
Marjane Satrapi, Embroideries

Ernest Hemingway
“As I ate the oysters with their strong taste of the sea and their faint metallic taste that the cold white wine washed away, leaving only the sea taste and the succulent texture, and as I drank their cold liquid from each shell and washed it down with the crisp taste of the wine, I lost the empty feeling and began to be happy and to make plans.”
Ernest Hemingway, A Moveable Feast
