Douglas Coupland
“As far as I can see, Janet, life is just an endless banquet of loss, and each time a new loss is doled out, you have to move your mental furniture around, throw things out, and by then there's more loss, and the cycle goes on and on. (All Families are Psychotic.)”
Douglas Coupland

Kurt Vonnegut Jr.
“What in hell is a girl with hips like yours doing selling death?”
Kurt Vonnegut, Welcome to the Monkey House

Azar Nafisi
“When I walked down the streets, I asked myself, are these my people?, is this my hometown, am I who I am?”
Azar Nafisi

Salman Rushdie
“Music, love, death. Certainly a triangle of sorts; maybe even an eternal one.

Salman Rushdie

(Invitation to a beheading)”
Vladimir Nabokov
