Jeff Lindsay
“Miami drivers have long ago take the simple chore of going from one place to another and turned it into a kind of high-speed, heavily armed game of high-stakes bumper cars.”
Jeff Lindsay, Dexter by Design

Mohsin Hamid
“The gun of the father is always the undoing of the son.”
Mohsin Hamid, Moth Smoke

Jeff Lindsay
“Have you ever noticed that every now and then you'll overhear an amazingly clear declarative sentence when you're out in public, spoken with such force and purpose that you absolutely yearn to know what it means, because it is just so forceful and crystalline? And you want to follow along behind whoever just spoke, even though you don;t know them, just to find out what that sentence means and how it would affect the lives of the people involved?”
Jeff Lindsay, Dexter by Design

Mohsin Hamid
“But you can always justify killing animals on the grounds that you want to eat them, or wear them, or that they smell bad, look funny, bother you, threaten you, and have the bad luck of being in your way. What about killing humans? Well aside from a few die-hard individualists on the fringe, the general consensus among people these days seems to be that eating and wearing other people is just not on. Wearing a suit which costs as much as a farmer will make in his lifetime is acceptable, but actually putting his eyeballs on a string and letting them dangle above tastefully exposed cleavage is bad form.”
Mohsin Hamid, Moth Smoke

Matthew Quick
“Life is random and fucked-up and arbitrary, until you find someone who can make sense of it all for you— if only temporarily.”
Matthew Quick, The Silver Linings Playbook
