Douglas Adams
“I don't accept the currently fashionable assertion that any view is automatically as worthy of respect as any equal and opposite view. My view is that the moon is made of rock. If someone says to me 'Well, you haven't been there, have you? You haven't seen it for yourself, so my view that it is made of Norwegian Beaver Cheese is equally valid' - then I can't even be bothered to argue. There is such a thing as the burden of proof, and in the case of god, as in the case of the composition of the moon, this has shifted radically. God used to be the best explanation we'd got, and we've now got vastly better ones. God is no longer an explanation of anything, but has instead become something that would itself need an insurmountable amount of explaining. So I don't think that being convinced that there is no god is as irrational or arrogant a point of view as belief that there is. I don't think the matter calls for even-handedness at all.”

Nicholas Sparks
“Sometimes we need to be apart to understand just how much we truly love each other .”
Nicholas Sparks, The Notebook

Sara Pascoe
“With our beloved prairie voles the female has her ovulation induced by the smell of male urine. It’s a sure sign there’s a male nearby and so her body gets ready for mating. The exact opposite of a human female getting a whiff of urinals in a nightclub and her vagina falling off in disgust”
Sara Pascoe

Bret Easton Ellis
“Women aren't very bright," Rip says. "Studies have been done.”
Bret Easton Ellis, Imperial Bedrooms

James Clavell
“time has no single measure, that time can be like frost or lightning or a tear or siege or storm or sunset, or even like a rock.”
James Clavell, Shōgun
