Walter Isaacson
“I always thought of myself as a humanities person as a kid, but I liked electronics,” he said. “Then I read something that one of my heroes, Edwin Land of Polaroid, said about the importance of people who could stand at the intersection of humanities and sciences, and I decided that’s what I wanted to do.” It was as if he were suggesting themes for his biography (and in this instance, at least, the theme turned out to be valid). The creativity that can occur when a feel for both the humanities and the sciences combine in one strong personality was the topic that most interested me in my biographies of Franklin and Einstein, and I believe that it will be a key to creating innovative economies in the twenty-first century.”
Walter Isaacson, Steve Jobs

J.D. Robb
“in tonight, do a special bulletin, get herself a nice scoop on the competition. “Yeah, yeah,” she called at the sound of the buzzer. “Just hang on.” She went to the door, looked through the security peep, saw a bit of profile and a big winter hat,”
J.D. Robb, Obsession in Death

K.M. Fawcett
“From over her shoulder, Dean took in the minimalist open space design. A large tarp covered a queen bed in the far-right corner. Sheets that were probably white under its layer of dust covered what appeared to be nightstands and lamps flanking the bed. There was a couch and an old tube tv that he doubted worked, a mini fridge, and a large bookcase overstuffed with books, old games, and knickknacks. Dusty plastic tubs of who knows what were stacked in the middle of the room. Garden tools leaned against the wall.”
K.M. Fawcett, Wilde Christmas

Jill Sanders
“Now, Clark’s Construction was officially open for business. He’d enjoyed his chat with the grocery store owner, Patty O’Neil, that first day. The older woman had eyed him up and down until finally she had smiled and slapped him on the shoulder and exclaimed that he’d fit right in.”
Jill Sanders, A Dash of Love
