Douglas Adams
“the dolphins had always believed that they were far more intelligent than man – for precisely the same reasons.”
Douglas Adams, The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy

Benjamin Hoff
“In other words, everything has its own place and function. That applies to people, although many don’t seem to realize it, stuck as they are in the wrong job, the wrong marriage, or the wrong house. When you know and respect your own Inner Nature, you know where you belong. You also know where you don’t belong. One man’s food is often another man’s poison, and what is glamorous and exciting to some can be a dangerous trap to others.”
Benjamin Hoff, The Tao of Pooh

Oscar Wilde
“In war,' answered the weaver, 'the strong make slaves of the weak, and in peace the rich make slaves of the poor. We must work to live, and they give us such mean wages that we die. We toil for them all day long, and they heap up gold in their coffers, and our children fade away before their time, and the faces of those we love become hard and evil. We tread out the grapes, and another drinks the wine. We sow the corn, and our own board is empty. We have chains, though no eye beholds them; and are slaves, though men call us free.”
Oscar Wilde, The Young King: The Star-Child

Stephen  King
“A whining note had come into his voice, the tone of someone who had—in AA lingo—a ring around his ass from sitting on the pity-pot.”
Stephen King, Fairy Tale
