Therisa Peimer
“Aurelia was just about to take a sip of a mimosa when Mother Guardian snatched the flute away and promptly downed the drink in one gulp. Burping unashamedly, she said, "We can't have the validity of the marriage contracts jeopardized because the bride got rat-assed on her wedding day.”
Therisa Peimer, Taming Flame

Sara Pascoe
“It is weird that the same two parents can come together and make two such different people.”
Sara Pascoe, Weirdo

Michael G. Kramer
“The Ganeva conference on Indochina agreements stated that the south of Vietnam would be handed over to a provisional administration after two years at the most and that general elections would be held in 1956 at the latest, giving Vietnam a single and united government. (due to American actions, the agreements were never put into place)”
Michael G. Kramer, A Gracious Enemy & After the War Volume One

Malorie Blackman
“Can anyone tell me what all these scientists and pioneers really had in common?’ Mr Jason asked. A few more hands went up at that. Mr Jason wasn’t the only one who was relieved – not that I was going to answer any more questions anyway. ‘Yes, Harriet?’ said Mr Jason. ‘They’re all men?’ Harriet replied. ‘Our examples are, but there have been plenty of women pioneers and scientists and achievers as well,’ Mr Jason smiled. ‘So can anyone tell me what else all the people mentioned have in common?”
Malorie Blackman, Noughts & Crosses

Art Spiegelman
“Поглянь, скільки всього вже понаписувано про Голокост. І нащо? Люди не змінилися… Може, потрібен новий, більший Голокост.”
Art Spiegelman, The Complete Maus
