Sylvia Plath
“It was a queer, sultry summer, the summer they electrocuted the Rosenbergs, and I didn't know what I was doing in New York.”
Sylvia Plath, The Bell Jar

Ernest Hemingway
“Let him think that I am more man than I am and I will be so.”
Ernest Hemingway, The Old Man and the Sea

Dean Koontz
“Sometimes you have to break a rule to save the system.”
Dean Koontz, Dragon Tears

“The beast in man had lifted its mask and the time of euphemistic niceties and rationalizations was over.”
Annette Dumbach, Sophie Scholl and the White Rose

Steven Johnson
“You have to jump around in time to get the facts right. Linear chronology makes for good popular storytelling, but it doesn’t always capture the deep causes that drive history. Some causes are proximate, in the moment. Some are echoes of distant shock waves, still reverberating a hundred—or a thousand—years later.”
Steven Johnson, Enemy of All Mankind: A True Story of Piracy, Power, and History's First Global Manhunt
