"Oh, come on. Society was always pretty— wait, you're saying the world's corporate elite are nonsentient?" "God, no. Not nearly. Maybe they're just starting down that road. Like chimpanzees." "Yeah, but sociopaths don't blend in well." ...more

“Judy went back to Paulie’s place, but either he wasn’t home or he wasn’t answering his door. After banging on the door for four minutes, then waiting another ten, she decided she’d probably have to find someplace else to crash today She wished she’d taken the time to actually have a few friends.”
A. Lee Martinez, Monster

Gideon Defoe
“In his time the Pirate Captain had made a number of dramatic entrances of his own – not always intentional it had to be said, as quite often they were the result of him accidentally setting himself on fire – but even he had to admit that Cutlass Liz’s dramatic entrance set an extremely high dramatic-entrance standard.”
Gideon Defoe, The Pirates! In an Adventure with Ahab

Robert Kroese
“He had intended his address to be somewhat more comprehensive than this but was forced to cut it short, having been stabbed between the ribs with a broadsword.”
Robert Kroese, Disenchanted

Ellen Klages
“No one knew how old she was, but she vaguely remembered waving to President Coolidge. She still had all of her marbles, though every one of them was a bit odd and rolled asymmetrically.”
Ellen Klages, In the House of the Seven Librarians

Gideon Defoe
“The Captain was wearing his best blousey shirt, his beard was gleaming in the early morning light and he’d polished all his gold teeth. As he strode manfully towards the shore, the only thing that could have make him look even more heroic that he already did would have been the theme to Flash Gordon playing in the background, but it was a hundred and seventy years too early for that.”
Gideon Defoe, The Pirates! In an Adventure With Napoleon
