Charles Baudelaire
“Nothing is as tedious as the limping days,
When snowdrifts yearly cover all the ways,
And ennui, sour fruit of incurious gloom,
Assumes control of fate’s immortal loom”
Charles Baudelaire, Paris Spleen

Milan Kundera
“Only after a while did it occur to me (in spite of the chilly silence which surrounded me) that my story was not of the tragic sort, but rather of the comic variety.

At any rate that afforded me some comfort.”
Milan Kundera, Laughable Loves

“Just when you think life is a bitch, it has puppies.”
Lois Battle, The Florabama Ladies' Auxiliary & Sewing Circle

Ray Bradbury
“Science fiction is the fiction of ideas. Ideas excite me, and as soon as I get excited, the adrenaline gets going and the next thing I know I’m borrowing energy from the ideas themselves. Science fiction is any idea that occurs in the head and doesn’t exist yet, but soon will, and will change everything for everybody, and nothing will ever be the same again. As soon as you have an idea that changes some small part of the world you are writing science fiction. It is always the art of the possible, never the impossible.”
Ray Bradbury

Philip K. Dick
“I'm not much but I'm all I have.”
Philip K Dick, Martian Time-Slip
