“She found the page, cleared her throat and began to read, " 'There was nary a doubt that I had ever seen such big ones, round and ripe. My teeth ached to bite them' " God, what tripe!
Johanna Lindsey, Gentle Rogue

David  Mitchell
“A rocker rose like Poseidon and flexed his knuckles.”
David Mitchell, Cloud Atlas

Robert Wright
“What has Athens to do with Jerusalem?" asked the Christian theologian Tertullian... Having received the revealed thruth via Christ, "we want no curious disputation." Well that was then. Today science is so powerful that theologians can't casually dismiss secular knowledge. For most... Athens and Jerusalem must be reconciled or Jerusalem will fall off the map. Philo's thoughtful answer is 'Logos')”
Robert Wright, The Evolution of God

“The conservatism of a religion - it's orthodoxy - is the inert coagulum of a once highly reactive sap.”
Eric Hoffer, The True Believer: Thoughts on the Nature of Mass Movements

Douglas Adams
“The major problem—one of the major problems, for there are several—one of the many major problems with governing people is that of whom you get to do it; or rather of who manages to get people to let them do it to them.

To summarize the summary: anyone who is capable of getting themselves made President should on no account be allowed to do the job.”
Douglas Adams, The Restaurant at the End of the Universe
