Jonathan Coe
“We say, ‘Shall we meet for a drink?’, as though drinking were the main end of the appointment, and the matter of company only incidental, we are so shy about admitting our need for one another.

[...]

We say, ‘Would you like to come for some coffee?’, as though it were less frightening to acknowledge that we are heavily dependent on mildly stimulating drinks, than to acknowledge that we are at all dependent on the companionship of other people.”
Jonathan Coe, The Accidental Woman

Grayson Perry
“If George Osborne had dressed up as a cross between Flashman and the Grim Reaper instead of a business suit when he delivered his budgets, perhaps we would have had a more appropriate vision of who was controlling the nation’s finances.”
Grayson Perry, The Descent of Man

Jonathan Coe
“I like the rain before it falls. of course there is no such thing, she said. That's why it's my favorite. Something can still make you happy, can't it, even if it isn't real.”
Jonathan Coe, The Rain Before It Falls

Haruki Murakami
“If you can’t understand it without an explanation, you can’t understand it with an explanation,”
Haruki Murakami, 1Q84 #1-2

Kurt Vonnegut Jr.
“She was a dull person, but a sensational invitation to make babies.”
Kurt Vonnegut, Slaughterhouse-Five
