Richard Flanagan
“A happy man has no past, while an unhappy man has nothing else.”
Richard Flanagan, The Narrow Road to the Deep North

George R.R. Martin
“Well, even if the boy lives, he'll be a cripple, grotesque. Give me a good, clean death any day.'...'Speaking for the grotesques, I'll have to disagree. Death is so final. Whereas life, ah life is so full of possibilities.”
George R.R. Martin, A Game of Thrones

Graeme Simsion
“I am able to hug Rosie. This was the issue that caused me the most fear after she agreed to live with me. I generally find body contact unpleasant, but sex is an obvious exception. Sex solved the body contact problem. We are now also able to hug without having sex, which is obviously convenient at times.”
Graeme Simsion, The Rosie Project

C.S. Lewis
“Make your choice, adventurous Stranger,
Strike the bell and bide the danger,
Or wonder, till it drives you mad,
What would have followed if you had.”
C.S. Lewis, The Magician's Nephew

Richard Flanagan
“A good book, he had concluded, leaves you wanting to reread the book. A great book compels you to reread your own soul. Such books were for him rare and, as he aged, rarer. Still he searched, one more Ithaca for which he was forever bound.”
Richard Flanagan, The Narrow Road to the Deep North
