George Orwell
“The enemy of the moment always represented absolute evil, and it followed that any past or future agreement with him was impossible.”
George Orwell, 1984

Henry James
“So far had Douglas presented his picture when someone put a question. "And what did the former governess die of? – of so much respectability?" Our friend's answer was prompt. "That will come out. I don't anticipate.”
Henry James, The Turn of the Screw

George Orwell
“You will have to get used to living without results and without hope. You will work for a while, you will be caught, you will confess, and then you will die. Those are the only results that you will ever see.”
George Orwell, 1984

Joshua Ferris
“Others just liked having their useless shit around in the place where they spent most of their time.”
Joshua Ferris

Joshua Ferris
“SOME PEOPLE WOULD NEVER FORGET certain people, a few people would remember everyone, and most of us would mostly be forgotten. Sometimes it was for the best. Larry Novotny wanted to be forgotten for his dalliance with Amber Ludwig. Tom Mota wanted to be forgotten for that incident involving the paintballs. But did anybody want to be forgotten about completely? We had dedicated years to that place, we labored under the notion we were making names for ourselves, we had to believe in our hearts that each one of us was memorable. And yet who wanted to be remembered for their poor taste or bad breath? Still, better to be remembered for those things than forgotten for your perfect parboiled blandness.”
Joshua Ferris, Then We Came to the End
