“Motherfuckers will read a book that’s one third Elvish, but put two sentences in Spanish and they [white people] think we’re taking over.”
Junot Díaz

Carson McCullers
“He waited for the black, terrible anger as though for some beast out of the night. But it did not come to him. His bowels seemed weighted with lead, and he walked slowly and lingered against fences and the cold, wet walls of buildings by the way. Descent into the depths until at last there was no further chasm below. He touched the solid bottom of despair and there took ease.”
Carson McCullers, The Heart Is a Lonely Hunter

David  Wong
“I know the Goliath Fucking Bird-Eating Spider can't fly because if it could, it would have a different name entirely. We would call it "sir" because it would be the dominant species on the planet. None of us would leave the house unless a Goliath Fucking Bird-Eating Spider said it was okay”
David Wong, This Book Is Full of Spiders

Martin Luther
“Where the battle rages, there the loyalty of the soldier is proved.”
Martin Luther

George R.R. Martin
“Every man should lose a battle in his youth, so he does not lose a war when he is old.”
George R.R. Martin, A Feast for Crows
