Amy Jo Burns
“She didn't know that the worst thing about a man wasn't his malice. It was his kindness, which he used in order to get what he wanted.”
Amy Jo Burns, Shiner

Victor LaValle
“Unsupervised reading is a blessing for a certain kind of child”
Victor LaValle, The Changeling

Iceberg Slim
“Why did Justice really always wear a blindfold? I knew now. It was because the cunning bitch had dollar signs for eyeballs”
Iceberg Slim, Pimp: The Story of My Life

“Such was his level of charm that it was hard to be disgusted by it: Nick expected a door to open and it did; he expected to be adored and he was. Before Nick, I had been eating at the same three restaurants and drinking at the same two bars for years because it spared me the exhaustion of walking into a new place and convincing them I belonged and they should treat me kindly, of greeting clerks and waitpersons in my PhD voice, dropping the name of the university when necessary, generously overtipping. It was revelation to move through the world with Nick, to see how little attention a white man needed to devote to that kind of performance, how much of his worry about how other people saw him could be consumed by the frivolous, how easy it was for me to be assumed respectable merely by association.”
Danielle Evans, The Office of Historical Corrections: A Novella and Stories

Daisaku Ikeda
“1. Become people who seek the truth, create value and possess wisdom and enthusiasm. 2. Do not cause trouble to others, and always take responsibility for your own actions. 3. Be considerate and polite, reject violence and value trustworthiness and cooperation. 4. Boldly speak out for your beliefs and act courageously for the sake of truth and justice. 5. Cultivate an enterprising spirit and become respectable leaders of Japan and the world.”
Daisaku Ikeda, The New Human Revolution - Volume 12
