“...to each man a city consists of no more than a few streets, a few houses, a few people. Remove those few and a city exists no longer except as a pain in the memory...”
Graham Greene, Our Man in Havana

Elizabeth Gilbert

Elizabeth Gilbert, City of Girls

Percy Bysshe Shelley
“A dream has power to poison sleep”
shelley, Frankenstein

Haruki Murakami, 1Q84

Brandon Sanderson

‘Oooh. Like the cat!’
‘...What?’
‘I’m not sure, honestly,’ M-Bot said. ‘But logically, if you’re speaking to me then possibility has collapsed in our favor. Hurray!”
Brandon Sanderson, Skyward
