Marion Zimmer Bradley
“Pride, she thought drearily, was a cold bedfellow.”
Marion Zimmer Bradley, The King Stag

Salman Rushdie
“I think that we live in a very timid age, and a part of our timidity arises from our unwillingness to offend people. And as a result there are whole tribes of people now who define themselves by their offendedness. I mean, who are you if you are not offended by anything? You're kind of nobody or even worse, you are a liberal. And I just think that whole business defining yourself by anger is very problematic. And then the fact that we all kind of bend over backwards not to induce that anger becomes very often also a problem and a kind of cowardice, if you like. And I think we just need to live in a more robust society in which people say things that other people don't like and the answer to that is not to throw a bomb at them, but to say "I don't like that much" and then get on with the next business.”
Salman Rushdie

Richard Dawkins
“The Bible may be an arresting and
poetic work of fiction, but it is not the sort of book you should give
your children to form their morals.”
Richard Dawkins

Scott Westerfeld
“Maybe human beings are programmed...to help one another, even to fall in love. But just because it's human nature doesn't make it bad...”
Scott Westerfeld, Pretties

Eugene O'Neill
“I am so far from being a pessimist...on the contrary, in spite of my scars, I am tickled to death at life.”
Eugene O'Neill
