Anita Diamant
“The chain connecting mother to daughter was broken and the world passed to the keeping of men, who had no way of knowing.”
Anita Diamant, The Red Tent

Robert Munsch
“Prince Ronald said, Elizabeth, your hair is all dirty. You are wearing an ugly paper bag. You don't have any shoes on and you smell like a dragon's ear. Come back and rescue me when you're dressed like a real princess.

Elizabeth said, Ronald, your hair is all nice. Your clothes are all pretty. You look like a nice guy, but guess what? You are a bum.

They didn't get married after all.”
Robert Munsch

Katherine Paterson
“For the only time in my life I would be living with a chain-smoking semi-invalid whose chief point of pride in life was his membership in the Ku Klux Clan.”
Katherine Paterson, Stories of My Life

Christopher Hitchens
“If someone tells me that I've hurt their feelings, I say, 'I'm still waiting to hear what your point is.'

In this country, I've been told, 'That's offensive' as if those two words constitute an argument or a comment. Not to me they don't.

And I'm not running for anything, so I don't have to pretend to like people when I don't.”
Christopher Hitchens

Munro Leaf
“And for all I know he is sitting there still, under his favorite cork tree, smelling the flowers just quietly”
Munro Leaf, The Story of Ferdinand
