E.M. Forster
“And the goblins--they had not really been there at all? They were only the phantoms of cowardice and unbelief? One healthy human impulse would dispel them? Men like the Wilcoxes, or ex-President Roosevelt, would say yes. Beethoven knew better. The goblins really had been there. They might return--and they did. It was as if the splendour of life might boil over and waste to steam and froth. In its dissolution one heard the terrible, ominous note, and a goblin, with increased malignity, walked quietly over the universe from end to end. Panic and emptiness! Panic and emptiness! Even the flaming ramparts of the world might fall. Beethoven chose to make all right in the end. He built the ramparts up. He blew with his mouth for the second time, and again the goblins were scattered. He brought back the gusts of splendour, the heroism, the youth, the magnificence of life and of death, and, amid vast roarings of a superhuman joy, he led his Fifth Symphony to its conclusion. But the goblins were there. They could return. He had said so bravely, and that is why one can trust Beethoven when he says other things.”
E.M. Forster, Howards End

Max Nowaz
“Some people say
Rhyming is but a sin.
Little sins are fun
So try, before you bin.”
Max Nowaz, Timbi's Dream

“Continue your search for the truth but remember one thing--all things are possible.”
J.B. Lion, The Seventh Spark: Volume One – Knights of the Trinity

Susan  Rowland
“If the Agency could become a container for something neither Anna nor Mary had known before: a family. Now, without Caroline depending on her, Anna was alone. It did not taste good. There were voices inside: I am risking everything; I could lose everything.”
Susan Rowland, The Alchemy Fire Murder

K.  Ritz
“Buying loyalty can be as effective as fear when one’s rival is poorer than oneself.”
K. Ritz, Sheever's Journal, Diary of a Poison Master
