Emma Bull
“Coincidence is the word we use when we can't see the levers and pulleys.”
Emma Bull

Roger Zelazny
“Of course it does not apply to me. I am the soul of honor, kindness, mercy and goodness. Trust me in all things.”
Roger Zelazny, The Guns of Avalon

Phuc  Tran
“Was this the real me? Stripped of the ability to look like a punk- what defined me as one? Not my jacket. Not my clothes. My friends? My enemies? No. What I did determined who I was, not what I looked like or what I liked. My actions and reactions. Did I emerge from the shell? I felt naked and free. Was I now pupa or chrysalis? I felt like myself- and that was what punk was. The freedom to be who I was unapologetically, even if I hadn't chosen it.”
Phuc Tran, Sigh, Gone: A Misfit's Memoir of Great Books, Punk Rock, and the Fight to Fit In

Amal El-Mohtar
“This is not even one of the weirder Atlantises. No crystals here, no flying cars, no perfect governments, no psychic powers. (Those last two things don’t exist, anyway.)”
Amal El-Mohtar, This Is How You Lose the Time War
