Susanna Clarke
“Can a magician kill a man by magic?” Lord Wellington asked Strange.
Strange frowned. He seemed to dislike the question. “I suppose a magician might,” he admitted, “but a gentleman never could.”
Susanna Clarke, Jonathan Strange & Mr Norrell

Gunnar Ekelöf
“Frågar du mig var jag finns
så bor jag här bakom bergen
Det är långt men jag är nära
Jag bor i en annan värld
men du bor ju i samma
Den finns överallt om också sällsynt som helium
Varför begär du ett luftskepp att fara med
Begär i stället ett filter för kväve
ett filter för kolsyra, väte och andra gaser
Begär ett filter för allt som skiljer oss
ett filter för livet
Du säger att du nästan inte kan andas
Än sen! Vem tror du kan andas?
Den mesta tiden tar vi det ändå med jämnmod
En vis man har sagt :
>>Det var så mörkt att jag nätt och jämt kunde se stjärnorna<<
Han menade bara att det var natt”
Gunnar Ekelöf, Strountes

James Joyce
“You can still die when the sun is shining.”
James Joyce, A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man

Sophie Scholl
“The real damage is done by those millions who want to 'survive.' The honest men who just want to be left in peace. Those who don’t want their little lives disturbed by anything bigger than themselves. Those with no sides and no causes. Those who won’t take measure of their own strength, for fear of antagonizing their own weakness. Those who don’t like to make waves—or enemies. Those for whom freedom, honour, truth, and principles are only literature. Those who live small, mate small, die small. It’s the reductionist approach to life: if you keep it small, you’ll keep it under control. If you don’t make any noise, the bogeyman won’t find you. But it’s all an illusion, because they die too, those people who roll up their spirits into tiny little balls so as to be safe. Safe?! From what? Life is always on the edge of death; narrow streets lead to the same place as wide avenues, and a little candle burns itself out just like a flaming torch does. I choose my own way to burn.”
Sophie Scholl

Marisha Pessl
“There might be a Starbucks on every corner and an iPhone at every ear, but don’t worry, people are still fucking crazy.”
Marisha Pessl, Night Film
