Bob   Odenkirk
“The Kids in the Hall were doing everything pretty much right in my book. Their show hung together, was distinctive, really likable, and you got to know them even while they were playing stridently strange characters. Plus they had a number of homes for the show, all in off-brand time slots and locales—right where it belonged. This made me envious and mad. Not at the guys—I liked them all—but at Canada in general. Somehow they were able to bring Canadian niceness to the brain-warping comic mayhem. How much maple syrup do I have to drink to become that nonthreatening? There isn’t enough in the world.”
Bob Odenkirk, Comedy Comedy Comedy Drama

Philip Pullman
“with his lumpish sow dæmon sprawled on the ground beside him, gnawing a turnip.”
Philip Pullman, The Secret Commonwealth

Amor Towles
“It must have been a decade since the Count had first promised himself to read this work of universal acclaim that his father had held so dear. And yet, every time he had pointed his finger at his calendar and declared: This is the month in which I shall devote myself to the Essays of Michel de Montaigne! some devilish aspect of life had poked its head in the door. From an unexpected corner had come an expression of romantic interest, which could not in good conscience be ignored. Or his banker had called. Or the circus had come to town. Life will entice, after all. But here, at last, circumstance had conspired not to distract the Count, but to present him with the time and solitude necessary to give the book its due.”
Amor Towles, A Gentleman in Moscow

Bob   Odenkirk
“Python was like my Bible, and in many ways it provoked contemplation just like that ratty old book. Also, it was kinder and more truthful.”
Bob Odenkirk, Comedy Comedy Comedy Drama

Stephen  King
“It’s like the song says—voices carry.”
Stephen King, Billy Summers
