Mikhail Bulgakov
“Punch a man on the nose, kick an old man downstairs, shoot somebody or any old thing like that, that’s my job. But argue with women in love—no thank you!”
Mikhail Bulgakov, The Master and Margarita

Solomon Northup
“Alas! I had not then learned the measure of "man's inhumanity to man," nor to what limitless extent of wickedness he will go for the love of gain”
Solomon Northup, Twelve Years a Slave

Wilkie Collins
“The rod of iron with which he rules her never appears in company--it is a private rod, and is always kept upstairs.”
Wilkie Collins, The Woman in White

Neal Stephenson
“The Deliverator belongs to an elite order, a hallow subcategory. He's got esprit up to here. Right now, he is preparing to carry out his third mission of the night. His uniform is black as activated charcoal, filtering the very light out of the air. A bullet will bounce off its arachnofiber weave like a wren hitting a patio door, but excess perspiration wafts through it like a breeze through a freshly napalmed forest. Where his body has bony extremities, the suit has sintered armorgel: feels like gritty jello, protects like a stack of telephone books.”
Neal Stephenson, Snow Crash

Voltaire
“One should always cite what one does not understand at all in the language one understands the least.”
Voltaire, Micromegas
