― Raymond Chandler, Farewell, My Lovely

“I’d like to be known as Winter.” “Winter. I like that.” “I know, right? ‘Winter is coming.’ ” “What?” Black Winter sighed. “Why do I work with people who lack culture?”
― Todd McAulty, The Robots Of Gotham

“Shall I tell you what sociology teaches us about the human race? I’ll give it to you in a nutshell. Show me a man or woman alone and I’ll show you a saint. Give me two and they’ll fall in love. Give me three and they’ll invent the charming thing we call “society”. Give me four and they’ll build a pyramid. Give me five and they’ll make one an outcast. Give me six and they’ll reinvent prejudice. Give me seven and in seven years they’ll reinvent warfare. Man may have been made in the image of God, but human society was made in the image of His opposite number, and is always trying to get back home.”
― Stephen King, The Stand
