Martha Wells
“(No, I didn't kill the dead human. If I had, I wouldn't dump the body in the station mall, for fuck's sake.)”
― Martha Wells, Fugitive Telemetry

“Well, he'd gone this far, animated by nothing more noble than curiosity, he told himself as he studied the face of the man in the mirror, pushing his collar down over his neatly knotted tie. The man's mind slipped into English: The cat's got your tongue. Curiosity killed the cat. To stay in vein, the man in the mirror gave a Cheshire smile, and Brunetti left the house.”
― Donna Leon, The Golden Egg
