Sara Pascoe
“It's only in my head, the madness. And there's no way of knowing if all this is going on in everyone else's head too without exposing myself, and I'd rather be insane and on the loose than locked up in a hospital.”
Sara Pascoe, Weirdo: 'Intense, also BRILLIANT, funny and forensically astute.' Marian Keyes

Walt Whitman
“Allons! the road is before us!
It is safe—I have tried it—my own feet have tried it well—be not detain’d!

Let the paper remain on the desk unwritten, and the book on the shelf unopen’d!
Let the tools remain in the workshop! let the money remain unearn’d!
Let the school stand! mind not the cry of the teacher!
Let the preacher preach in his pulpit! let the lawyer plead in the court, and the judge expound the law.

Camerado, I give you my hand!
I give you my love more precious than money,
I give you myself before preaching or law;
Will you give me yourself? will you come travel with me?
Shall we stick by each other as long as we live?”
Walt Whitman, Leaves of Grass

Michael Wyndham Thomas
“After that, nothing was the same. The very notion of my having a family turned vague, hard to credit, even weirdly jokey.”
Michael Wyndham Thomas, The Erkeley Shadows

K.  Ritz
“Gossip is like thread wound over a spindle of truth, changing its shape.”
K. Ritz, Sheever's Journal, Diary of a Poison Master

Mary  Stewart
“The place for truth is not in the facts of a novel; it is in the feelings.”
Mary Stewart
