Sarah Vowell
“No cowboys for Canada. Canada got Mounties instead - Dudley Do-Right, not John Wayne. It's a mind-set of "Here I come to save the day" versus "Yippee-ki-yay, motherfucker.”
Sarah Vowell, The Partly Cloudy Patriot

Sarah Vowell
“Um," I asked, "isn't the whole point about being a slave that you don't have a choice to be anything else?" Prettying up the word slave with the adjective-noun constructions makes "enslaved African" sound nonchalant. As in "Those were the cabins of the jolly leprechauns.”
Sarah Vowell, The Partly Cloudy Patriot

Max Brooks
“There's a word for that kind of lie. Hope.”
Max Brooks, World War Z: An Oral History of the Zombie War

Jeff Lindsay
“I looked around the store and what I saw was not very encouraging. There were rows and rows of violent toys...aisle after aisle of training devices for recreational slaughter. No wonder our world was such a mean and violent place...if we teach children that killing is fun, can we really be surprised if now and then someone is smart enough to learn?”
Jeff Lindsay, Dexter Is Delicious

Jeff Lindsay
“As I've said, freedom is really an illusion. Anytime we think we have a real choice, it just means we haven't seen the shotgun aimed at our navel.”
Jeff Lindsay, Dexter Is Delicious
