Todor Bombov
“Yesterday, I asked a robot, Gumball I think, do you know Murphy’s law of gravitation? It answered, ‘No, sir, I know only Newton’s and Einstein’s laws of gravitation; I don’t know Murphy’s law.’ I replied, ‘Eh, Gumball, the slice always falls with the buttered side to the floor. That’s Murphy’s law.’” Everyone burst into laughter.”
Todor Bombov, Homo Cosmicus 2: Titan

Cricket Rohman
“I may seem happy, but I’m still hurting. A nasty, adulterous divorce will do that.”
Cricket Rohman, Wanted: An Honest Man

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

Max Nowaz
“You shall address me as ‘My Dearest’,’ he repeated in a mocking voice, trying to copy her tone. ‘You will forget all about this conversation when you leave this room.’ It was interesting that tone; it had a sort of hypnotising ring to it.”
Max Nowaz, The Three Witches and the Master

Yvonne Korshak
“We had old architects and were working with what we had on hand. You’ve hired this new, young architect now, and, Pericles, I’m going to build you a statue of Athena—all gold and ivory, think of that, Pericles—and taller than our city walls.” Pericles raised his eyes toward the birds.”
Yvonne Korshak, Pericles and Aspasia: A Story of Ancient Greece
