“The growing sensitivity of people to any sort of open and frank discussion of important issues is no service to civilisation, let alone law and order. I wrote a play about a man who happened to be a salesman, and several organisations of sales people flew to arms. Now it is the lawyers. If I am to back away from these objections you must surely see that I shall be forced to write about people with no occupation whatever.”
― Arthur Miller

― Mark Z. Danielewski, House of Leaves

“Mein Selbstwertgefühl hängt davon ab, wie viel von der Welt ich beim Herumlaufen verdränge? Himmel, was für ein erniedrigender Gedanke.”
― Richard Bachmann

“Murdoch's gun was the only thing in my life, the only thing worth living for. It gets like that sometimes, with instruments of death.”
― Jeff Noon, Vurt
