“Vous vous demandez contre qui je joue ? Sixtine ne sut que répondre et se contenta de regarder les dominos en vrac sur la table. L’homme lui sourit et susurra : — La Muerte. La Mort. Sixtine fut happée par son regard. — Chaque jour, nous jouons. Pour l’instant, elle m’a toujours laissé gagner.”
― Caroline Vermalle, Sixtine - L'Intégrale

“God has not regulated the laws of nature to meet the demands of human vanity." 
The Spirits' Book”
― Allan Kardec

“In a fairy tale I would be one of the two stupid sisters who open the forbidden door and are shocked by the murdered wives, not the third, clever one who keeps to the essentials: presence of mind, foresight, the telling of watertight lies. I told lies but they were not watertight. My mind was not disciplined, as Arthur sometimes pointed out.”
― Margaret Atwood, Lady Oracle

“I even spent a certain amount of time worrying about the Spiritualist doctrines: If The Other Side was so wonderful, why did the spirits devote most of their messages to warnings? Instead of telling their loved ones to avoid slippery stairs and unsafe cars and starchy foods, they should have been luring them over cliffs and bridges and into lakes, spurring them on to greater feats of intemperance and gluttony, in order to hasten their passage to the brighter shore.”
― Margaret Atwood, Lady Oracle
