Julian Barnes
“History just burps, and we taste again that raw-onion sandwich it swallowed centuries ago.”
Julian Barnes, A History of the World in 10½ Chapters

Vladimir Nabokov
“Nothing could be more humiliating to a rational creature than being required to encourage the development of a Base conditional reflex by stopping at a red light when there was not an earthly soul around, heeled or wheeled.”
Vladimir Nabokov, Pnin
