Max Brooks
“It is my fault, and the fault of everyone of my generation. I wonder what the future generations will say about us. My grandparents suffered through the Depression, World War II, then came home to build the greatest middle class in human history. Lord knows they weren't perfect, but they sure came closest to the American dream. Then my parents' generation came along and f***ed it all up - the baby boomers, the "me" generation. And then you got us. Yeah, we stopped the Zombie menace, but we're the ones who let it become a menace in the first place. At least we're cleaning up our own mess, and maybe that's the best epitaph to hope for. 'Generation Z, they cleaned up their own mess.”
Max Brooks, World War Z: An Oral History of the Zombie War

Nicholas Evans
“I guess that's all forever is. Just one big long trail of nows. And I guess all you can do is try and live one now at a time without getting too worked up about the last now or the next now.”
Nicholas Evans, The Horse Whisperer

Trevor Alan Foris
“Wait in there... You’ll like it in there... Run along, we’ve got grown up things to do...”
Trevor Alan Foris, The Octunnumi Fosbit Files Prologue

Edith Wharton
“One of the surprises of her unoccupied state was the discovery that time, when it is left to itself and no definite demands are made on it, cannot be trusted to move at any recognized pace. Usually it loiters; but just when one has come to count upon its slowness, it may suddenly break into a wild irrational gallop.”
Edith Wharton, The House of Mirth

Harper Lee
