Jim Thompson
“They had no hope of anything more, no comprehension that there might be anything more. In a sense they were an autonomous body, functioning within a society which was organized to grind them down. The law did not protect them; for them it was merely an instrument of harassment, a means of moving them on when it was against their interest to move, or detaining them where it was to their disadvantage to stay.”
Jim Thompson, The Getaway

Iain Banks
“Perhaps he just got fed up acting normal and decided to act crazy instead, and they locked him up because he went too far.”
Iain Banks, The Wasp Factory

“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

Elizabeth Wurtzel
“Years later, thinking about this conversation, I will remember, as somebody very sagely said during the patricide trials of the Menendez brothers: Anytime your kids kill you, you are at least partly to blame.”
Elizabeth Wurtzel, Prozac Nation

Mark Z. Danielewski
“Navidson's troubles might not have created the house, but they did ultimately shape the way he faced it.”
Mark Z. Danielewski, House of Leaves
