Janet Fitch
“Death like a lover, caressing him, promising him peace, running its fingers through his hair, its tongue in his ear. She put her own two fingers in her mouth. Im so sorry. And pulled the trigger”
Janet Fitch, Paint it Black

Emmuska Orczy
“I take it, sir, that you do not approve of our new society."

"Approval, sir, in my opinion, demands the attainment of perfection. And in that sense, you rather overrate the charms of your society. I'faith, for one thing, it does seem monstrous ill-dressed for any society, even a new one.”
Baroness Emmuska Orczy

Thomas Hardy

Thomas Hardy, The Return of the Native

Katherine Paterson
“I love revision. Where else can spilled milk be turned into ice cream?”
Katherine Paterson

Richard  Adams
“Most of them had not understood Blackberry's discovery of the raft and at once forgot it.”
Richard Adams, Watership Down
