Vladimir Nabokov
“And the rest is rust and stardust.”
Vladimir Nabokov, Lolita

Nelson Mandela
“Let there be justice for all. Let there be peace for all. Let there be work, bread, water and salt for all. Let each know that for each the body, the mind and the soul have been freed to fulfill themselves.”
Nelson Mandela

Haruki Murakami
“If you only read the books that everyone else is reading, you can only think what everyone else is thinking.”
Haruki Murakami, Norwegian Wood

Hilary Mantel
“The lawyer's world is entire unto itself, the human pared away.”
Hilary Mantel, Bring Up the Bodies
