Michael Ondaatje
“I believe in such cartography – to be marked by nature, not just label ourselves on a map like the names of rich men and women on buildings. We are communal histories, communal books. ... All I desired was to walk upon such an earth that had no maps.”
Michael Ondaatje, The English Patient

Thomas Hardy
“Such miserable creatures of circumstance are we all!”
Thomas Hardy, The Woodlanders
