Douglas Adams
“Don't you understand that we need to be childish in order to understand? Only a child sees things with perfect clarity, because it hasn't developed all those filters which prevent us from seeing things that we don't expect to see.”
Douglas Adams, Dirk Gently's Holistic Detective Agency

David Foster Wallace
“Te occidere possunt sed te edere non possunt nefas est." (Roughly, "They can kill you, but the legalities of eating you are quite a bit dicier.")”
David Foster Wallace, Infinite Jest

Herman Melville
“Beneath those stars is a universe of gliding monsters.”
Herman Melville

Flannery O'Connor

"Some fun!" Bobby Lee said.

"Shut up, Bobby Lee," The Misfit said. "It's no real pleasure in life.”
Flannery O'Connor, A Good Man Is Hard to Find and Other Stories

Gabriel García Márquez
“He was weary of the uncertainty of the vicious circle of that eternal war that always found him in the same place, but always older, wearier, even more in the position of not knowing why, or how, or even when.”
Gabriel García Márquez
