Jean M. Auel
“Wat zijn dat, Creb?’ gebaarde Ayla, zwijgend omhoog wijzend. ‘Vuren in de hemel. Elk ervan is de vuurplaats van iemands geest in de andere wereld.’ ‘Zijn er zóveel mensen?’ ‘Het zijn de vuren van alle mensen die naar de wereld der geesten zijn overgegaan en van alle mensen die nog niet geboren zijn.”
Jean M. Auel, The Clan of the Cave Bear

Jean M. Auel
“De Geest van de Lichte Droge Sneeuw nam de Geest van de Korrelige Sneeuw tot gezellin en enige tijd later baarde zij ver in het Noorden een Berg van IJs. De Zonnegeest haatte het glinsterende kind dat groeide en zich steeds verder over het land uitstrekte en de zonnewarmte tegenhield zodat er geen gras kon groeien. De Zon besloot Berg van IJs te vernietigen, maar de Geest van de Stormwolk, de bloedverwant van Korrelige Sneeuw, ontdekte dat de Zon haar kind wilde doden. En in de zomer, toen de Zon op zijn krachtigst was, vocht de Geest van de Stormwolk met hem om het leven van Berg van IJs te redden.”
Jean M. Auel, The Clan of the Cave Bear

“I have to return some videotapes”
Bret Easton Ellis, American Psycho

Thor Heyerdahl
“Coal-black seas towered up on all sides, and a glittering myriad of tropical stars drew a faint reflection from plankton in the water. The world was simple, stars in the darkness. Whether it was 1947 B.C. or A.D. suddenly became of no significance. We lived, and that we felt with alert intensity. We realised that life had been full for men before the technical age also - indeed, fuller and richer in many ways than the life of modern man. Time and evolution somehow ceased to exist; all that was real and all that mattered were the same to-day as they had always been and would always be; we were swallowed up in the absolute common measure of history, endless unbroken darkness under a swarm of stars.”
Thor Heyerdahl, Expedition Kon-Tiki

Emily St. John Mandel
“My point is, there’s always something. I think, as a species, we have a desire to believe that we’re living at the climax of the story. It’s a kind of narcissism. We want to believe that we’re uniquely important, that we’re living at the end of history, that now, after all these millennia of false alarms, now is finally the worst that it’s ever been, that finally we have reached the end of the world.”
Emily St. John Mandel, Sea of Tranquility
