Susan  Rowland
“Mary tried to look reassuring. “It’s a house party, he said,” she directed at the Falconers, “Sir Viktor’s holding a house party for the convenience of the police. It’s like an old-fashioned mystery novel.”
Susan Rowland, Murder on Family Grounds

Émile Zola
“Oh, that's typical of you modern young men; you've nibbled at science and it's made you ill, because you've not been able to satisfy that old craving for the absolute that you absorbed in your nurseries. You'd like science to give you all the answers at one go, whereas we're only just beginning to understand it, and it'll probably never be anything but an eternal quest. And so you repudiate science, you fall back on religion, and religion won't have you any more. Then you relapse into pessimism...Yes, it's the disease of our age, of the end of the century: you're all inverted Werthers.”
Émile Zola, The Joy of Life

Rohinton Mistry
“used to. But now I prefer to think that God is a giant quiltmaker. With an infinite variety of designs. And the quilt is grown so big and confusing, the pattern is impossible to see, the squares and diamonds and triangles don’t fit well together anymore, it’s all become meaningless. So He has abandoned it.”
Rohinton Mistry, A Fine Balance

Rebecca Skloot
“And when the Lord chooses an angel to do his work, you never know what they going to come back looking like.”
Rebecca Skloot, The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks

Ellen Raskin
“Hi Sandy, I won!”
Ellen Raskin, The Westing Game
