“Love and respect dissolve the human constructs of class and religion.”
Rebecca Rosenberg, Madame Pommery, Creator of Brut Champagne

Astrid Lindgren

och jag seker honom
långt i fjärran
bortom bergen.”
Astrid Lindgren

Norton Juster
“So each one of you agrees to disagree with whatever the other one agrees with, but if you both disagree with the same thing, aren't you really in agreement?”
Norton Juster, The Phantom Tollbooth

V.C. Andrews
“Prettiness was more akin to coziness than grand, rich and beautiful.”
V.C. Andrews, Flowers in the Attic

Christopher Moore
“It’s sarcasm, Josh.”

“Sarcasm?”

“It’s from the Greek, sarkasmos. To bite the lips. It means that you aren’t really saying what you mean, but people will get your point. I invented it, Bartholomew named it.”

“Well, if the village idiot named it, I’m sure it’s a good thing.”

“There you go, you got it.”

“Got what?”

“Sarcasm.”

“No, I meant it.”

“Sure you did.”

“Is that sarcasm?”

“Irony, I think.”

“What’s the difference?”

“I haven’t the slightest idea.”

“So you’re being ironic now, right?”

“No, I really don’t know.”

“Maybe you should ask the idiot.”

“Now you’ve got it.”

“What?”

“Sarcasm.”
Christopher Moore, Lamb: The Gospel According to Biff, Christ’s Childhood Pal
