Christopher Moore
“I'll bet he was myrrh. Bastard, he brings the cheapest gift and now he wants to sodomize me.”
Christopher Moore, Lamb: The Gospel According to Biff, Christ’s Childhood Pal

“There is one thing that I do find extraordinary and it never ceases to amaze me. That even in this day and age, in any day and age, that people always insist on believing their heroes are men”
Lucretia Grindle, Villa Triste

Markus Zusak
“They say that war is death's best friend, but I must offer you a different point of view on that one. To me, war is like the new boss who expects the impossible. He stands over your shoulder repeating one thin, incessantly: 'Get it done, get it done.' So you work harder. You get the job done. The boss, however, does not thank you. He asks for more.”
Markus Zusak, The Book Thief

Christopher Moore
“All men are evil, that’s what I was talking to my father about.
What did he say?
Fuck ‘em.
Really?
Yeah.
At least he answered you.
I got the feeling that he thinks it’s my problem now.
Makes you wonder why he didn’t burn that on one of the tablets. ‘HERE, MOSES, HERE’S THE TEN COMMANDMENTS, AND HERE’S AN EXTRA ONE THAT SAYS FUCK ‘EM.’
He doesn’t sound like that.”
Christopher Moore, Lamb: The Gospel According to Biff, Christ’s Childhood Pal

Christopher Moore
“That's the difference between irony and sarcasm. Irony can be spontaneous, while sarcasm requires volition. You have to create sarcasm.”
Christopher Moore, Lamb: The Gospel According to Biff, Christ’s Childhood Pal
