William T. Vollmann
“We all lived for money, and that is what we died for.”
William T. Vollmann, No Immediate Danger: Volume One of Carbon Ideologies

Susanna Clarke
“All of Man’s works, all his cities, all his empires, all his monuments will one day crumble to dust. Even the houses of my own dear readers must – though it be for just one day, one hour – be ruined and become houses where the stones are mortared with moonlight, windowed with starlight and furnished with the dusty wind. It is said that in that day, in that hour, our houses become the possessions of the Raven King. Though we bewail the end of English magic and say it is long gone from us and inquire of each other how it was possible that we came to lose something so precious, let us not forget that it also waits for us at England’s end and one day we will no more be able to escape the Raven King than, in this present Age, we can bring him back.” The History and Practice of English Magic by Jonathan Strange, pub. John Murray, London, 1816.”
Susanna Clarke, Jonathan Strange & Mr Norrell

James Aura
“Early one morning in the spring of 1985, I woke up and walked through the valley of the shadow of death, and didn’t even know it.”
James Aura, The Cumberland Killers: A Kentucky Mystery

Viet Thanh Nguyen
“I am simply able to see any issue from both sides. Sometimes I flatter myself that this is a talent, and although it is admittedly one of a minor nature, it is perhaps also the sole talent I possess.”
Viet Thanh Nguyen, The Sympathizer

“Love big, forgive always, do good, and don’t be an asshole.’ That’s yoga, that’s a life well-lived. It’s really that simple. End of story.”
Seane Corn, Revolution of the Soul: Awaken to Love Through Raw Truth, Radical Healing, and Conscious Action
