Benjamin Alire Sáenz
“Typically, I didn't know what to say so I didn't say anything.”
Benjamin Alire Sáenz, Aristotle and Dante Discover the Secrets of the Universe

Susanna Clarke
“He had once found himself in a room with Lady Bessborough's long-haired white cat. He happened to be dressed in an immaculate black coat and trousers, and was there thoroughly alarmed by the cat's stalking round and round and making motions as if it proposed to sit upon him. He waited until he believed himself to be unobserved, then he picked it up, opened a window, and tossed it out. Despite falling three storeys to the ground, the cat survived, but one of its legs was never quite right afterward and it always evinced the greatest dislike of gentlemen in black clothes.”
Susanna Clarke, Jonathan Strange & Mr Norrell

Henry David Thoreau
“Read not the Times, read the Eternities.”
Thoreau Henry David

Italo Calvino
“O inferno dos vivos não é uma coisa que virá a existir; se houver um, é o que já está aqui, o inferno que habitamos todos os dias, que nós formamos ao estarmos juntos. Há dois modos para não o sofrermos. O primeiro torna-se fácil para muita gente: aceitar o inferno e fazer parte dele a ponto de já não o vermos. O segundo é arriscado e exige uma atenção e uma aprendizagem contínuas: tentar e saber reconhecer, no meio do inferno, quem e o que não é inferno, e fazê-lo viver, e dar-lhe lugar.”
Italo Calvino, Invisible Cities
