Emma Richler
“So one might say that music killed him, that he was felled by music. It's a theory.

String theory.”
Emma Richler, Be My Wolff

K.C. Cole
“All these dualities suggest that string theorists have been looking at the same animal, only some have discovered the tail, while others have found the ears or glimpsed a snout. The problem is, they still don't know what kind of animal they're dealing with.”
K.C. Cole, The Hole in the Universe
