Kim Stanley Robinson
“The revolt seemed to Nadia more a waste than ever, an unfocused spasm of rage, the ultimate cutting off one’s nose to spite one’s face.”
Kim Stanley Robinson, Red Mars

Neil Gaiman
“...if it was me, and I had a library wall to deface. I think I'd just remind people of the power of stories, of why they exist in the first place. i'd put up the four words that anyone telling a story wants to hear. The ones that show that it's working, and that pages will be turned: "...and then what happened?”
Neil Gaiman

Garth Ennis
“Don't take no shit off fools. An' you judge a person by what's in 'em, not how they look. An' you do the right thing. You gotta be one of the good guys, son: 'cause there's way too many of the bad.”
Garth Ennis

Atticus  .
“What of the firefly,
the one I love to chase?
The old man smiled
Love her
he said
but leave her wild,
and the old oak tree I love to climb?
Love her, he said, but leave her wild
the bird that sings that song I love?
Love her, he said, but leave her wild
and the wolf that cries to the old joke moon?
Love her, he said, but leave her wild
and the horse that loves to run with storms?
Love her, he said, but leave her wild.
And what of her,
the one I love most?
And the old man smiled.
Yes, he said,
you must love her too
but love her wild
and she’ll love you”
Atticus Poetry, Love Her Wild

Gene Wolfe
“Weak people believe what is forced on them. Strong people what they wish to believe, forcing that to be real.”
Gene Wolfe, Shadow & Claw
