“If you want a picture of the future, imagine a boot stamping on a human face—for ever.”

Doesn't that make life a story?”
Yann Martel, Life of Pi

“Nowadays most people die of a sort of creeping common sense, and discover when it is too late that the only things one never regrets are one's mistakes.”
Oscar Wilde, The Picture of Dorian Gray

Kurt Vonnegut Jr.
“Everything was beautiful and nothing hurt.”
Kurt Vonnegut, Slaughterhouse-Five

George Orwell
“We shall meet in the place where there is no darkness.”
