Salman Rushdie
“God did not hand down morality to us. We created God to embody our moral instincts.”
Salman Rushdie, Knife: Meditations After an Attempted Murder

Fred Hoyle
“Incompetence was Kingley's béte noire, not incompetence performed in private but incompetence paraded in public”
Fred Hoyle, The Black Cloud

Fyodor Dostoevsky
“I repeat, crime is too common a refuge for such untalented, impatient and greedy nonentities”
Fyodor Dostoevsky, The Idiot

Christopher Hitchens
“It's strange how the boundry between the knowing and the innocent is subconsciously patrolled.”
Christopher Hitchens, Hitch 22: A Memoir

August Strindberg
“Ja, herr pastor, jag förlåter dem, men icke mig själv! Att sysslolösa fruntimmer roa sig med välgörenhet, det är förlåtligt, det är bra, men att de kalla detta en vacker handling som blott är ett nöje, ett nöje större än andra genom den retelse som offentligheten, den största offentlighet som finns, nämligen publikationen i tryck, kan skänka den, det är skamligt.”
August Strindberg
