Michael G. Kramer
“Oskar Scultetus said, “Two of my men have been ordered to cut two of the guy wires holding the transmission tower in place, and they are already doing so  using  oxy-acetylene torches. When they have done it, the tower will fall!”
Michael G. Kramer, His Forefathers and Mick

Robert         Reid
“Next morning, while her children were still asleep in their tent, Evie got up early. The acorn she had planted the day before had sprung to life and was nearly ten feet high. Sitting on the fallen log where the forest boy had sat thirty years earlier, she listened. There was no dancing partner. Maybe she was now too old, but the oak trees did sing for her.”
Robert Reid, The Empress:

Eric Schlosser
“Ever since the administration of President Richard Nixon, the fast food industry has worked closely with its allies in Congress and the White House to oppose new worker safety, food safety, and minimum wage laws. While publicly espousing support for the free market, the fast food chains have quietly pursued and greatly benefited from a wide variety of government subsidies. Far from being inevitable, America's fast food industry in its present form is the logical outcome of certain political and economic choices.”
Eric Schlosser, Fast Food Nation: The Dark Side of the All-American Meal

Astrid Lindgren
“Alles war so überaus traurig, dass er beschloss, sich auf sein Bett zu legen und ein wenig darüber nachzudenken, wie traurig es eigentlich war.”
Astrid Lindgren, Nils Karlsson-Pyssling

Sara Pascoe
“Oo, I like a good cat fight – especially when it doesn’t involve me,’ Oscar said.
‘Shut up!’ Bryony and Raya said simultaneously. A hairline crack formed in the ice between them.”
Sara Pascoe, Being a Witch, and Other Things I Didn't Ask For
