Book cover for The Disappearing Act: The Impossible Case of MH370
‘When a rumour gets too close to the truth that you don’t want known, you can either nip it in the bud, drown in it a lot of other rumours, or simply feed the doubt,’

J.G. Ballard
“Deserts possess a particular magic, since they have exhausted their own futures, and are thus free of time. Anything erected there, a city, a pyramid, a motel, stands outside time. It's no coincidence that religious leaders emerge from the desert. Modern shopping malls have much the same function. A future Rimbaud, Van Gogh or Adolf Hitler will emerge from their timeless wastes.”
J.G. Ballard, The Atrocity Exhibition

J.G. Ballard
“I would sum up my fear about the future in one word: boring. And that's my one fear: that everything has happened; nothing exciting or new or interesting is ever going to happen again ... the future is just going to be a vast, conforming suburb of the soul”
J.G. Ballard

Chuck Palahniuk
“You are not special. You're not a beautiful and unique snowflake. You're the same decaying organic matter as everything else. We're all part of the same compost heap. We're all singing, all dancing crap of the world.”
Chuck Palahniuk, Fight Club

Fyodor Dostoevsky
“Man is tormented by no greater anxiety than to find someone quickly to whom he can hand over that great gift of freedom with which the ill-fated creature is born.”
Fyodor Dostoevsky, The Grand Inquisitor

Ernest Hemingway
“How did you go bankrupt?"
Two ways. Gradually, then suddenly.”
Ernest Hemingway, The Sun Also Rises
