Mildred D. Taylor
“Big Ma didn't need to say any more and she didn't. T.J. was far from her favorite person and it was quite obvious that Stacey and I owed our good fortune entirely to T.J.'s obnoxious personality.”
Mildred D. Taylor

N.H. Kleinbaum
“So avoid using the word ‘very’ because it’s lazy. A man is not very tired, he is exhausted. Don’t use very sad, use morose. Language was invented for one reason, boys - to woo women - and, in that endeavor, laziness will not do. It also won’t do in your essays.”
N.H. Kleinbaum, Dead Poets Society

Sherman Alexie
“When a glass sits on a table here, people don't wonder if it's half filled or half empty. They just hope it's good beer.”
Sherman Alexie

Fynn
“The diffrense from a person and an angel is easy. Most of an angel is in the inside and most of a person is on the outside.”
Fynn, Mister God, This is Anna

Christopher Hitchens
Nihil humanum a me alienum puto, said the Roman poet Terence: 'Nothing human is alien to me.' The slogan of the old Immigration and Naturalization Service could have been the reverse: To us, no aliens are human.”
Christopher Hitchens, Hitch 22: A Memoir
