Warren Ellis
“...You people don't know what the truth is! It's there, just under their bullshit, but you never look! That's what I hate most about this fucking city-- LIES ARE NEWS AND TRUTH IS OBSOLETE!”
Warren Ellis, Transmetropolitan, Vol. 2: Lust for Life

“Listen to the Chair Leg of Truth! It does not lie!”
Warren Ellis, Transmetropolitan, Vol. 9: The Cure

David Simon
“My standard for verisimilitude is simple and I came to it when I started to write prose narrative: fuck the average reader. I was always told to write for the average reader in my newspaper life. The average reader, as they meant it, was some suburban white subscriber with two-point-whatever kids and three-point-whatever cars and a dog and a cat and lawn furniture. He knows nothing and he needs everything explained to him right away, so that exposition becomes this incredible, story-killing burden. Fuck him. Fuck him to hell.”
David Simon

Warren Ellis
“- You know what this is?
- Nope
- It's a bowel disruptor. And you are just full of shit.”
Warren Ellis, Transmetropolitan, Vol. 1: Back on the Street

Eugene B. Sledge
“To the non-combatants and those on the periphery of action, the war meant only boredom or occasional excitement, but to those who entered the meat grinder itself the war was a netherworld of horror from which escape seemed less and less likely as casualties mounted and the fighting dragged on and on. Time had no meaning, life had no meaning. The fierce struggle for survival in the abyss of Peleliu had eroded the veneer of civilization and made savages of us all.”
E.B. Sledge, With the Old Breed: At Peleliu and Okinawa
