Franz Kafka
“Maybe innocence makes its way easiest through the elemental chaos of this world...”
Franz Kafka

Marisha Pessl
“All worthwhile tales possess some element of violence.”
Marisha Pessl, Special Topics in Calamity Physics

“Ain’t none of you ever been stuck in the mud and needed a push? I won’t ask you how you can be for this and still call yourselves Christians, because one of you would have some kind of answer out of what I call the Holy-Joe-Do-It-My-Way Bible. But, Jeezly-Crow! How can you read the parable of the Good Samaritan on Sunday and then say you’re for a thing like this on Monday night?”
Richard Bachman, Blaze

Anthony Burgess
“The modern State, whether in a totalitarian or a democratic country, has far too much power, and we are probably right to fear it.”
Anthony Burgess, A Clockwork Orange

Arthur Koestler
“The problem of the planetary orbits had been hopelessly bogged down in its purely geometrical frame of reference, and when Kepler realized that he could not get it unstuck, he tore it out of that frame and removed it into the field of physics. This operation of removing a problem from its traditional context and placing it into a new one, looking at it through glasses of of a different colour as it were, has always seemed to me of the very essence of the creative process.”
Arthur Koestler, The Sleepwalkers: A History of Man's Changing Vision of the Universe
