Sara Pascoe
“Love is described like GOD.”
Sara Pascoe

Michael Wyndham Thomas
“After that, nothing was the same. The very notion of my having a family turned vague, hard to credit, even weirdly jokey.”
Michael Wyndham Thomas, The Erkeley Shadows

Susan  Rowland
“Bring me Mother Julian’s Scroll within two weeks, or I’ll get that guttersnipe Leni prosecuted for attempted murder. She won’t survive long in prison.”
Susan Rowland, The Alchemy Fire Murder

Ammar Habib
“We truly are ripples on the lake. However, unlike the water’s ripples, the ripples of life don’t end in death. They carry on in everyone we touch, even if we can’t see it. They echo for eternity, and, in that way, we truly are immortal.”
Ammar Habib, The Orphans of Kashmir

Yvonne Korshak
“We had old architects and were working with what we had on hand. You’ve hired this new, young architect now, and, Pericles, I’m going to build you a statue of Athena—all gold and ivory, think of that, Pericles—and taller than our city walls.” Pericles raised his eyes toward the birds.”
Yvonne Korshak, Pericles and Aspasia: A Story of Ancient Greece
