Lisa See
“Wanting to give her the best fit I could, I sand the knowledge I had learned from Snow Flower. "Everyone needs clothing-no matter how cool it is in summer or how warm it is in winter-so make clothes for others without being asked. Even if the table is plentiful, let your in-laws eat first. Work hard and remember three things: Be god to your in-laws and always show respect, be good to your husband and always weave for him, be good to your children and always be a model of decorum to them. If you do these things, your new family will treat you kindly. In that fine home, be calm of heart.”
Lisa See, Snow Flower and the Secret Fan

Christopher Moore
“He was a writer and words were his weapons.”
Christopher Moore, Bloodsucking Fiends

Ernest Cline
“Ismeritek azt a mondást, hogy ha egyszer elhagytátok az otthonotokat, soha nem térhettek vissza oda igazán?”
Ernest Cline, Ready Player One

J.D. Salinger
“The connection was so bad, and I couldn’t talk at all during most of the call. How terrible it is when you say I love you and the person at the other end shouts back ‘What?”
J.D. Salinger, Raise High the Roof Beam, Carpenters & Seymour: An Introduction

Barbara W. Tuchman
“The only really detestable character in Chaucer’s company of Canterbury pilgrims is the Pardoner with his stringy locks, his eunuch’s hairless skin, his glaring eyes like a hare’s, and his brazen acknowledgment of the tricks and deceits of his trade.”
Barbara W. Tuchman, A Distant Mirror: The Calamitous 14th Century
