“The sea reminds her of the interior of an abalone shell. In this light, its colours are blue, green and white.”
Sally Ann Hunter, Transfigured Sea

Ally Condie
“There is something extraordinary about the first time falling.”
Ally Condie, Reached

John Payton Foden
“I want you to write like Alice Munro.  Stir the world.  Make people see the horror; show them their suffering relatives; show them that they’re not safe.  Let them know that they can’t even begin to imagine what’s happening here.  By making my reality more compelling than reality television is the only way you’ll get their attention.
Psychotic and cynical.
Who can tell the difference anymore between a severed head and a special effect?  Can you?  I doubt it, and I know you’ve been in the middle of it all and seen the damage first-hand.”
John Payton Foden, Magenta

Jean M. Auel
“When you are alone, you have all the time in the world to practice whistling like a bird. When there is no one in the world you can turn to, a horse or .even a lion may give you companionship. When you don't know if there is anyone in the world like you, you seek contact with something living however you can”
Jean M. Auel, The Clan of the Cave Bear, the Valley of Horses, the Mammoth Hunters, the Plains of Passage

Jeffrey Eugenides
“I was beginning to understand something about normality. Normality wasn't normal. It couldn't be. If normality were normal, everybody could leave it alone. They could sit back and let normality manifest itself. But people-and especially doctors- had doubts about normality. They weren't sure normality was up the job. And so they felt inclined to give it a boost.”
Jeffrey Eugenides, Middlesex
