Ray Bradbury
“Так вот, значит, что тянуло сюда Дугласа - тайная война человека с природой: из года в год человек похищает что-то у природы, а она вновь берет свое, и никогда город по-настоящему, до конца, не побеждает, вечно ему грозит безмолвная опасность; он вооружился косилкой и тяпкой, огромными ножницами, он подрезает кусты и опрыскивает ядом вредных букашек и гусениц, он упрямо плывет вперед, пока ему велит цивилизация, но каждый дом того и гляди захлестнут зеленые волны и схоронят навеки, а когда-нибудь с лица земли исчезнет последний человек и его косилки и садовые лопаты, изъеденные ржавчиной, рассыплются в прах.”
Ray Bradbury

Natsume Sōseki
“I do not want your admiration now, because I do not want your insults in the future. I bear with my loneliness now, in order to avoid greater loneliness in the years ahead. You see, loneliness is the price we have to pay for being born in this modern age, so full of freedom, independence, and our own egotistical selves.”
Natsume Sōseki, Kokoro

Ray Bradbury
“Sunsets we always liked because they only happen once and go away."
"But, Lena, that's sad."
"No, if the sunset stayed and we got bored, that would be a real sadness.”
Ray Bradbury, Dandelion Wine

George R.R. Martin
“I confess, I do not understand what there is in her to make a clever man like you act such a fool.”
“You might, if you were not a eunuch.”
“Is that the way of it? A man may have wits, or a bit of meat between his legs, but not both?” Varys tittered. “Perhaps I should be grateful I was cut, then.”
The Spider was right.”
George R.R. Martin, A Storm of Swords

Ray Bradbury
“Coloured people don't like Little Black Sambo. Burn it. White people don't feel good about Uncle Tom's Cabin. Burn it. Someone's written a book on tobacco and cancer of the lungs? The cigarette people are weeping? Burn the book.”
Ray Bradbury, Fahrenheit 451
