“It's discouraging to think how many people are shocked by honesty and how few by deceit.”
― Noël Coward, Blithe Spirit

“I'm not saying that everything is survivable. Just that everything except the last thing is.”
― John Green, Paper Towns

“Fifty grand for a paper bucket? Well it was all about context, you see.”
― Paul Christensen, The Hungry Wolves of Van Diemen's Land

“The archaeologists who will come and blow away the ashes from our house will unearth only the metal parts of the sophisticated furnishings, and it will take them some time to reconstruct their original beauty; they will find very few objects and almost no embellishments, not even in Emanuele's room, which from year to year is being emptied of toys and colors, because everything that's important to him is now found in the circuits of a tablet. I wonder what would suggest to them that a couple and then a family had lived in those rooms and that they were happy together, at least for long stretches of time.”
― Paolo Giordano, Il nero e l'argento
