“And how are you feeling this morning?” Dougal asked, smiling wanly. “Like a hedgehog got loose in my skull and fouled itself between my ears,” the norn said with a knowing smile. “Never better!”

“Words can be like X-rays if you use them properly – they’ll go through anything. You read and you’re pierced.”
Aldous Huxley, Brave New World

Philip Pullman
“After nourishment, shelter and companionship, stories are the thing we need most in the world.”
Philip Pullman

“I am not who you think I am; I am not who I think I am; I am who I think you think I am ”
Cooley, Inscriptions

Stephen  King
“Books are a uniquely portable magic.”
Stephen King, On Writing: A Memoir of the Craft

Douglas Adams
“This is rather as if you imagine a puddle waking up one morning and thinking, 'This is an interesting world I find myself in — an interesting hole I find myself in — fits me rather neatly, doesn't it? In fact it fits me staggeringly well, must have been made to have me in it!' This is such a powerful idea that as the sun rises in the sky and the air heats up and as, gradually, the puddle gets smaller and smaller, frantically hanging on to the notion that everything's going to be alright, because this world was meant to have him in it, was built to have him in it; so the moment he disappears catches him rather by surprise. I think this may be something we need to be on the watch out for.”
Douglas Adams, The Salmon of Doubt: Hitchhiking the Galaxy One Last Time
