“Crooked politicians stood in the way of our President until the Hitman doled out justice for them.”
RB Le `Deach, My Graphic Bipolar Fantasies: & Other Short Stories

Jacob Grimm
“The prolongation of light meant the cessation of traditional stories in European cottages. And when the cottages took in American kerosene or paraffin there was prolongation. Then came lamps with full and steady light, lamps that gave real illumination. Told under this illumination the traditional stories ceased to be appropriate because the rhythm that gave them meaning was weakened. Other things happened to put traditional stories out of date. Young people went to schools and learned to read. The world reached into the villages; wars and the doings of congresses interested country people more and more. Claiming attention for the happenings of the day before, the newspaper reader took the place of the traditional storyteller, the man of memories.”
Jacob Grimm, The Complete Grimm's Fairy Tales

Ovid
“To feed her love on melancholy sorrow”
Ovid, Metamorphoses

Aravind Adiga
“Yes, it’s true: a few hundred thousand rupees of someone else’s money, and a lot of hard work, can make magic happen in this country.”
Aravind Adiga, The White Tiger

Mark Bowden
“I pride myself on not making people’s experience shittier.”
Mark Bowden, The Last Stone
