John Fowles
“It's like the day you realize dolls are dolls. I pick up my old self and I see it's silly. A toy I've played with too often. It's a little sad, like an old golliwog at the bottom of the cupboard. Innocent and used-up and proud and silly.”
John Fowles, The Collector

Kurt Vonnegut Jr.
“Since Alice had never received any religious instruction, and since she had led a blameless life, she never thought of her awful luck as being anything but accidents in a very busy place. Good for her.”
Kurt Vonnegut, Slapstick, or Lonesome No More!

J.K. Rowling
“The world isn’t split into good people and Death Eaters.”
J.K. Rowling, Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix

Anthony  Powell
“His mastery of the hard-luck story was of a kind never achieved by persons not wholly concentrated on themselves.”
Anthony Powell, A Dance to the Music of Time: 1st Movement

Vladimir Nabokov
“The commentator may be excused for repeating what he has stressed in his own books and lectures, namely that "offensive" is frequently but a synonym for "unusual;" and a great work of art is of course always original, and thus by its very nature should come more or less as a shocking surprise.”
Vladimir Nabokov, Lolita
