Alan Bradley
“It was a lie and I detected it at once. As an accomplished fibber myself, I spotted the telltale signs of an untruth before they were halfway out of his mouth: the excessive detail, the offhand delivery, and the wrapping-up of it all in casual chitchat.”
Alan Bradley, The Sweetness at the Bottom of the Pie
tags: fibber, lie

Joseph Conrad
“I slipped the book into my pocket. I assure you to leave off reading was like tearing myself away from the shelter of an old and solid friendship.”
Joseph Conrad, Heart of Darkness and The Secret Sharer

Jasper Fforde
“If you ever think you might want a career in politics, Inspector, think again. It's merely a continuous and mostly vain attempt to keep several groups of people with opposing needs and agendas happy, and knowing in your heart of hearts that you cannot, and being lambasted for you hard work in the bargain.”
Jasper Fforde

Glen James Brown
“All the best tales retain some element of mystery.”
Glen James Brown, Mother Naked

Sarah Vowell
“We are flawed creatures, all of us. Some of us think that means we should fix our flaws. But get rid of my flaws and there would be no one left.”
Sarah Vowell, Take the Cannoli
