John Varley
“There’s always a way to work out your problems if you’ll only take a look at them and then do what needs to be done.
For instance, when I found that three mornings in a row I had shut off my new alarm and gone back to sleep, I put the switch in the kitchen and tied it in to the coffeemaker.”
John Varley, Millennium

David Langford
“The traditional wisdom when dealing with poltergeist phenomena is to keep an eye out for adolescent children in the vicinity.”

“I no longer believe I can save people. I've tried, and I've failed, and while I'm sure there are people out there in the world with that particular gift, I'm not one of them...But books, on the other hand: I do still believe that books can save you.”
Rebecca Makkai, The Borrower
