Jacob Grimm
“Entonces fue hacia la cama y corrió las cortinas: la abuela estaba allí tumbada, con el gorro de dormir bien calado y un aspecto muy raro.
-¡Ay, abuela, qué orejas tan grandes tienes!
-Para así pode oírte mejor.
-¡Ay, abuela, qué ojos tan grandes tienes!
-Para así poder verte mejor.
-¡Ay, abuela, qué manos tan grandes tienes!
-Para así poder cogerte mejor.
-¡Ay, abuela, qué boca tan grande y tan horrible tienes!
-Para así poder comerte mejor.
No había terminado de decir esto el lobo cuando salió de la cama de un salto y devoró a la pobre Caperucita Roja.”
Jacob Grimm, Wilhelm Grimm, Cuentos de los hermanos Grimm

John Rachel
“It was the fundamental bifurcation of the masses of human meat into two starkly opposite classes: the haves and the have-nots. The have-nots had barely anything. The haves had it all. The haves had everything except concern and compassion for the have-nots, who they regarded as little more than cockroaches.”
John Rachel, Love Connection: Romance in the Land of the Rising Sun

Leslie K. Simmons
“I sometimes think with Moliere, Mr. Ridge, that ‘there is no folly equal to he who attempts to mend the world.’”
A single, unsuppressed laugh escaped him. “Yes,” he reluctantly replied, “but I cannot but help to attempt it, nonetheless.”
Leslie K. Simmons, Red Clay, Running Waters

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

K.  Ritz
“Buying loyalty can be as effective as fear when one’s rival is poorer than oneself.”
K. Ritz, Sheever's Journal, Diary of a Poison Master
