Roald Dahl
“The books transported her into new worlds and introduced her to amazing people who lived exciting lives. She went on olden-day sailing ships with Joseph Conrad. She went to Africa with Ernest Hemingway and to India with Rudyard Kipling. She travelled all over the world while sitting in her little room in an English village.”
Roald Dahl, Matilda

Charlotte Brontë
“I have a strange feeling with regard to you. As if I had a string somewhere under my left ribs, tightly knotted to a similar string in you. And if you were to leave I'm afraid that cord of communion would snap. And I have a notion that I'd take to bleeding inwardly. As for you, you'd forget me.”
Charlotte Brontë, Jane Eyre

Thomas Hardy
“It is difficult for a woman to define her feelings in language which is chiefly made by men to express theirs.”
Thomas Hardy, Far From the Madding Crowd

Roald Dahl
“All the reading she had done had given her a view of life that they had never seen.”
Roald Dahl, Matilda

Christopher Marlowe
“Hell hath no limits, nor is circumscribed
In one self place, for where we are is hell,
And where hell is must we ever be.”
Christopher Marlowe, Dr. Faustus
