John Steinbeck
“But the Hebrew word, the word timshel—‘Thou mayest’— that gives a choice. It might be the most important word in the world. That says the way is open. That throws it right back on a man. For if ‘Thou mayest’—it is also true that ‘Thou mayest not.”
John Steinbeck, East of Eden

Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley
“And now, once again, I bid my hideous progeny go forth and prosper. I have an affection for it, for it was the offspring of happy days, when death and grief were but words, which found no true echo in my heart.”
Mary Shelley, Frankenstein or the Modern Prometheus

Alexandre Dumas
“Que de haine elle distille ! Là, immobile, et les yeux ardents et fixes dans son appartement désert, comme les éclats de ses rugissements sourds, qui parfois s’échappent avec sa respiration du fond de sa poitrine, accompagnent bien le bruit de la houle qui monte, gronde, mugit et vient se briser, comme un désespoir éternel et impuissant, contre les rochers sur lesquels est bâti ce château sombre et orgueilleux !
Comme, à la lueur des éclairs que sa colère orageuse fait briller dans son esprit, elle conçoit, contre Mme Bonacieux, contre Buckingham, et surtout contre d’Artagnan, de magnifiques projets de vengeance, perdus dans les lointains de l’avenir.”
Alexandre Dumas, Alexandre Dumas' The Three Musketeers

Magda Szabó
“Mi trovai nella situazione, cui non ci si riesce mai ad abituare, di chi torna a casa e non trova nessuno curioso di sapere che notizie porta, liete o funeste che siano - l'uomo di Neandertal probabilmente imparò a piangere quando capì per la prima volta di essere completamente solo accanto al corpo del bisonte trascinato nella caverna, di non avere nessuno con cui condividere le avventure della caccia, nessuno cui mostrare il trofeo o le ferite subite.”
Magda Szabó, The Door

Stéphane Mallarmé
“La chair, hélas, est triste, et j'ai lu tous les livres.”
Stephane Mallarme
