Stephen  Hunter
“The question is, where would he get a bomb? I mean, if he doesn't have a Russian missile silo or a missile sub at his command, where does he get a bomb? Does he buy it at Eddie Bauer's?”
Stephen Hunter, The Day Before Midnight

Stephen  Hunter
“He had an erection like an SS-24. He was set to blast off.”
Stephen Hunter, The Day Before Midnight

Stephen  King
“This country must swear off its dirty little wars. The CIA has been at the root of every dirty little war America has fought in this century. The CIA and dollar diplomacy.”
Stephen King, The Shining

Stephen  King
“...refusing to give in to his wretched stomach, which wanted to vomit up everything. He thought of the Excedrin in his pocket and decided to wait until his stomach had quieted a bit. No sense swallowing a painkiller if you were going to throw it right back up. Have to use your brain. The celebrated Jack Torrance brain. Aren't you the fellow who once was going to live by his wits? Jack Torrance, bestselling author. Jack Torrance, acclaimed playwright and winner of the New York Critics Circle Award. John Torrance, man of letters, esteemed thinker, winner of the Pulitzer Prize at seventy for his trenchant book of memoirs, My Life in the Twentieth Century. All any of that shit boiled down to was living by your wits. Living by your wits is always knowing where the wasps are.”
Stephen King, The Shining

Leon Uris
“Here's a good one. God made man. Guns made man equal. Guns are the legacy of liberty.
Just because...just because our magazine doesn't feature a naked woman on the cover!
Hell, no, there's no naked women. The sickos would rather squeeze a trigger than a woman's breast. Guns are good old boys! They got them wham-whap two-fisted names, like...like Savage, Colt, Ruger, Baretta, Sigs, Winchester...
Springfield!
Browning!
Luger.
Smith & Wesson.
Remington Viper.
Glock. Don't forget Glock!
Markov, Walther!
H and K.
Mauser parabellum.
Anschutz.
Magnum! All sorts of mags.
I quit, you win. Mags are it.”
Leon Uris, A God in Ruins: A Political Thriller About an Irish Catholic Presidential Candidate and an Explosive Secret from World War II
