Douglas Adams
“In order that some sense of mystery should still be preserved, no revelation will yet be made concerning whose upper arm sustains the bruise. This fact may safely be made the subject of suspense since it is of no significance whatsoever.”
Douglas Adams, The Ultimate Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy

Matt Alt
“A 1968 survey asking young men how they spent their free time within the last three months was topped by “reading,” followed by “drinking at home.”
Matt Alt, Pure Invention: How Japan Made the Modern World

Haruki Murakami
“Although they knew that a suspicious object had been sighted on board train B801, and knew that it had caused numerous casualties, not one person thought to take the train out of service at any point.”
Haruki Murakami, Underground: The Tokyo Gas Attack and the Japanese Psyche

Robert Jay Lifton
“With the Diaries he had no need for either a cult or a guru in the flesh. The book provided this American with entrée to the equivalent of a radical cultic experience.”
Robert Jay Lifton, Destroying the World to Save It: Aum Shinrikyo, Apocalyptic Violence, and the New Global Terrorism

Haruki Murakami
“It wasn’t until the autumn that it really sank in, little by little. For instance, if someone had fallen down right in front of me, I like to think I’d have helped. But what if they fell fifty yards away? Would I go out of my way to help? I wonder. I might have seen it as somebody else’s business and walked on by. If I’d gotten involved I’d have been late for work …”
Haruki Murakami, Underground: The Tokyo Gas Attack and the Japanese Psyche
