“Oh it was gorgeousness and gorgeosity made flesh. The trombones crunched redgold under my bed, and behind my gulliver the trumpets three-wise silverflamed, and there by the door the timps rolling through my guts and out again crunched like candy thunder. Oh, it was wonder of wonders. And then, a bird of like rarest spun heavenmetal, or like silvery wine flowing in a spaceship, gravity all nonsense now, came the violin solo above all the other strings, and those strings were like a cage of silk round my bed. Then flute and oboe bored, like worms of like platinum, into the thick thick toffee gold and silver. I was in such bliss, my brothers.”
― Anthony Burgess, A Clockwork Orange

“أسوأ الأشياء يا سيدي أن نتحدث عن أخلاق لا نمارسها.. وفضائل لا نعرفها.. وأنتم تكلمتم كثيراً عن الأخلاق ولم يكن الأمر أكثر من مسرحية هزلية رخيصة أضاعت أجيالاً وأفسدت وطناً”
― فاروق جويدة , ليس للحب أوان
