“Do you still distrust me?”
“No. Take your necklace with you so you can think of me when I’m not there.”
Brown brought the necklace over to her and put it on her neck.
“I think it rather suits me,” she laughed and left.
Brown didn’t understand what had made him insist she wear the necklace. Maybe it
was the readiness with which she had made love, or her frequent disappearances lately,
he was just curious. There was no harm in checking, before he parted with the money.
Later that evening, before going to sleep he decided to have a look at her location and
he was in for a surprise. She had not left Central City at all. In fact she was at the same
friend’s address as she had been the last time.”
Max Nowaz, The Arbitrator

Virginie Despentes
“Porque el ideal de la mujer blanca, seductora pero no puta, bien casada pero no a la sombra, que trabaja pero sin demasiado éxito para no aplastar a su hombre, delgada pero no obsesionada con la alimentación, que parece indefinidamente joven pero sin dejarse desfigurar por la cirugía estética, madre realizada pero no desbordada por los pañales y por las tareas del colegio, buen ama de casa pero no sirvienta, cultivada pero menos que un hombre, esta mujer blanca feliz que nos ponen delante de los ojos, esa a la que deberíamos hacer el esfuerzo de parecernos, a parte del hecho de que parece romperse la crisma por poca cosa, nunca me la he encontrado en ninguna parte. Es posible incluso que no exista.”
Virginie Despentes, Teoría King Kong

Jeff Noon
“He got one finger cut off when he was young... The cafe paid for a replacement, put some nano-plastic in there. The kid got hooked. It happens. You get some plastic in you, you just want some more...Some more of that strength. Because that's what it is. Strength. The Strength to persist.”
Jeff Noon, Vurt

“Ich muss Sie darauf hinweisen, dass Sie im Augenblick bis zur Hüfte in der Scheiße stecken und dass die Scheiße immer tiefer wird. Und ich nehme nicht an, dass Sie schwimmen können.”
Richard Bachmann

“Nun, es gibt noch etwas anderes, an das ich glaube, William. Ich glaube, was ich sehe. Aus dem Grund bin ich ein relativ reicher Mann. Vor allem aber bin ich deshalb auch ein lebendiger Mann. Die meisten Menschen glauben einfach nicht, was sie sehen.”
Richard Bachmann
