Stephen  King
“Sometimes,’ he said, ‘sometimes I think I know why. Sometimes I have a dream, a bad dream, and I wake up and I think, “I know now. I know what’s wrong.” Not just you not catching pregnant – everything. Everything that’s wrong with my life.’ ‘Stanley, nothing’s wrong with your life!’ ‘I don’t mean from inside,’ he said. ‘From inside is fine. I’m talking about outside. Something that should be over and isn’t. I wake up from these dreams and think, “My whole pleasant life has been nothing but the eye of some storm I don’t understand.” I’m afraid. But then it just … fades. The way dreams do.”
Stephen King, It

Kurt Vonnegut Jr.
“He didn't look like a soldier at all. He looked like a filthy flamingo.”
Kurt Vonnegut

Walter Tevis

Walter Tevis, The Queen's Gambit

Kōji Suzuki
“My friend loves taking a bath all by herself. She never ever gets out.”
Kōji Suzuki, Dark Water

Ervin Laszlo
“Whereas traditional reductionism sought to find the commonality underlying diversity in reference to a shared substance, such as material atoms, contemporary systems theory seeks to find common features in terms of shared aspects of organization.”
Ervin Laszlo, The Systems View of the World: A Holistic Vision for Our Time
