Michel Foucault
The frontiers of a book are never clear-cut: beyond the title, the first lines, and the last full-stop, beyond its internal configuration and its autonomous form, it is caught up in a system of references to other books, other texts, other sentences: it is a node within a network.
Michel Foucault, The Archaeology of Knowledge and The Discourse on Language

Jeffrey Ford
In that moment, I realized how dangerous it was to keep company with the characters from books. They lived books lives of fierce deeds and deep yearning.
Jeffrey Ford, Ahab's Return: A Haunting Moby-Dick Retelling – Captain Ahab Hunts Ishmael in Gothic 1800s New York
