Steven Decker
“Well, it’s like this, Edward. There is a cosmic certainty to things. An order. There are places, like Earth, where time passes. People live, then die. And there are places like this, outside of time, where existence goes on forever.”
Steven Decker, One More Life to Live

Sara Pascoe
“She peeped through one of the small holes in the outer wall rising up from the walkway. The world on the outside was nothing but countryside now. Dirt roads, like chocolate ribbons, disappeared into woods or green fields in the distance.”
Sara Pascoe, Being a Witch, and Other Things I Didn't Ask For

Todor Bombov
“This acute, “a selfdissolving contradiction,” Marx had very precisely seen and foreseen that “it establishes a monopoly in certain spheres and thereby requires state interference.” This contradiction “reproduces a new financial aristocracy” (how much Marx was right!), no matter it will call itself Communist Party of Soviet Union or DuPont Financial Circle. It reproduces “a new variety of parasites . . . , a whole system of swindling and cheating by means of corporation promotion, stock issuance, and stock speculation.”
Todor Bombov, Socialism Is Dead! Long Live Socialism!: The Marx Code-Socialism with a Human Face

Max Nowaz
“I haven’t got a clue why his bones disintegrated, but look at the bright side,” laughed Adam. “We won’t have to dispose of the body. I’ll get a pan and brush in a minute and flush him down the toilet.”
Max Nowaz, The Three Witches and the Master

Yvonne Korshak
“Part of the hem floated loose. She spun around again—the fabric tightened like wool on a spindle. She breathed in fear. The boat was farther away. She swung her head around—so was the shore.”
Yvonne Korshak, Pericles and Aspasia: A Story of Ancient Greece
