Herman Melville
“It is not down on any map; true places never are.”
Herman Melville, Moby-Dick or, The Whale

Penelope Fitzgerald
“Behind their dark glass, the mad own nothing.”
Penelope Fitzgerald, Charlotte Mew

William Shakespeare
“The prince of darkness is a gentleman!”
William Shakespeare, King Lear

Herman Melville
“Whenever I find myself growing grim about the mouth; whenever it is a damp, drizzly November in my soul; whenever I find myself involuntarily pausing before coffin warehouses, and bringing up the rear of every funeral I meet; and especially whenever my hypos get such an upper hand of me, that it requires a strong moral principle to prevent me from deliberately stepping into the street, and methodically knocking people's hats off--then, I account it high time to get to sea as soon as I can. This is my substitute for pistol and ball. With a philosophical flourish Cato throws himself upon his sword; I quietly take to the ship.”
Herman Melville, Moby Dick

Susanna Clarke
“Time and I have quarrelled. All hours are midnight now. I had a clock and a watch, but I destroyed them both. I could not bear the way they mocked me.”
Susanna Clarke, Jonathan Strange & Mr Norrell
