Douglas R. Hofstadter
“Saying that studying the brain is limited to the study of physical entities would be like saying that literary criticism must focus on paper and bookbinding, ink and its chemistry, page sizes and margin widths, typefaces and paragraph lengths, and so forth.”
Douglas R. Hofstadter, I Am a Strange Loop

Orson Scott Card
“There's only one thing that will make them stop hating you. And that's being so good at what you do that they can't ignore you.”
Orson Scott Card, Ender’s Game

China Miéville, Perdido Street Station
