William Kely McClung
“No foot, but strapped to his thigh was what looked like a wooden table leg. It looked ridiculous; the idea was completely idiotic. A naked pirate who couldn’t even afford a proper peg leg.”
William Kely McClung, LOOP

Robert Musil
“Er wollte nichts mehr von Beförderung wissen, die bei der Truppe nach der Rangliste vorrückte wie eine unsagbar langsame Uhr nichts mehr von den Vormittagen, wo man noch bei aufsteigender Sonne, von oben bis unten beschimpft, vom Exerzierplatz zurückkehrt und mit bestaubten Reitstiefeln das Kasino betritt, um die Leere des Tags, der noch so lang sein wird, um leere Weinflaschen zu vermehren;”
Robert Musil, Der Mann ohne Eigenschaften

Paula Hawkins
“the job itself is utterly beneath me, but then I seem to have become beneath me over the past year or two. I need to reset the scale.”
Paula Hawkins, The Girl on the Train

Rohinton Mistry
“You know, Maneck, the human face has limited space. My mother used to say, if you fill your face with laughing, there will be no room for crying.’ ‘What a nice saying,’ he answered”
Rohinton Mistry, A Fine Balance
