“All morning I struggled with the sensation of stray wisps of one world seeping through the cracks of another. Do you know the feeling when you start reading a new book before the membrane of the last one has had time to close behind you?

― Diane Setterfield, The Thirteenth Tale

― L.M. Montgomery, Anne of Green Gables

“Who controls the past controls the future. Who controls the present controls the past.”
― George Orwell, 1984

“People have to talk about something just to keep their voice boxes in working order so they'll have good voice boxes in case there's ever anything really meaningful to say.”
― Kurt Vonnegut, Cat’s Cradle
