Charles Dickens
“Out of my thoughts! You are part of my existence, part of myself. You have been in every line I have ever read, since I first came here, the rough common boy whose poor heart you wounded even then. You have been in every prospect I have ever seen since – on the river, on the sails of the ships, on the marshes, in the clouds, in the light, in the darkness, in the wind, in the woods, in the sea, in the streets. You have been the embodiment of every graceful fancy that my mind has ever become acquainted with. The stones of which the strongest London buildings are made, are not more real, or more impossible to displace with your hands, than your presence and influence have been to me, there and everywhere, and will be. Estella, to the last hour of my life, you cannot choose but remain part of my character, part of the little good in me, part of the evil. But, in this separation I associate you only with the good, and I will faithfully hold you to that always, for you must have done me far more good than harm, let me feel now what sharp distress I may. O God bless you, God forgive you!”
Charles Dickens, Great Expectations

Benedict Wells
“Als junger Mensch hatte ich das Gefühl, ein anderes, falsches Leben zu führen. Noch stärker als meine Geschwister habe ich mich gefragt, wie sehr mich Ereignisse aus meiner Kindheit und Jugend bestimmt haben, und erst spät habe ich verstanden, dass in Wahrheit nur ich selbst der Architekt meiner Existenz bin. Ich bin es, wenn ich zulasse, dass meine Vergangenheit mich beeinflusst, und ich bin es umgekehrt genauso, wenn ich mich ihr widersetzte.”
Benedict Wells, Vom Ende der Einsamkeit

Benedict Wells
“Wir sind von Geburt an auf der Titanic. Wir gehen unter, wir werden das hier nicht überleben, das ist bereits entschieden. Nichts kann das ändern. Aber wir können wählen, ob wir schreiend und panisch umherlaufen, oder ob wir wie die Musiker sind, die tapfer und in Würde weiterspielen, obwohl das Schiff versinkt.”
Benedict Wells, Vom Ende der Einsamkeit

John Irving
“My dear boy, " Miss Frost said sharply. "My dear boy, please don't put a label on me - don't make a category before you get to know me!”
John Irving, In One Person

Margaret Atwood
“You’re clear, Mr. Duke.” Grins from both of them. What could Felix possibly be suspected of smuggling, a harmless old thespian like him? It’s the words that should concern you, he thinks at them. That’s the real danger. Words don’t show up on scanners.”
Margaret Atwood, Hag-Seed
