Iain Banks
“The truth is not always useful, not always good. It’s like putting your faith in water. Yes, we need the rain, but too much can sweep you away in a flood and drown you. Like all great natural, elemental forces, the truth needs to be channeled, managed, controlled and intelligently, morally allocated.”
Iain M. Banks, Surface Detail

George Orwell
“There will be no curiosity, no enjoyment of the process of life. All competing pleasures will be destroyed. But always— do not forget this, Winston— always there will be the intoxication of power, constantly increasing and constantly growing subtler. Always, at every moment, there will be the thrill of victory, the sensation of trampling on an enemy who is helpless.
If you want a picture of the future, imagine a boot stamping on a human face— forever. ”
George Orwell, 1984

Lois McMaster Bujold
“This is important! But you have to stay absolutely cool. I may be completely off-base, and panicking prematurely."
"I don't think so. I think you're panicking post-maturely. In fact, if you were panicking any later it would be practically posthumously. I've been panicking for days.”
Lois McMaster Bujold, Miles, Mystery, and Mayhem

Dorothy Dunnett
“I wish to God,” said Gideon with mild exasperation, “that you’d talk—just once—in prose like other people.”
Dorothy Dunnett, The Game of Kings

Gene Wolfe
“You think whatever is wrong with you is contagious, then?'

She laughed again. 'Yes, but you have it already. You caught it from your mother. Death.”
Gene Wolfe, Sword & Citadel
