Margaret Atwood
“Kick in the door, and what did I tell you? Caught in the act, sinfully Scrabbling. Quick, eat those words.”
Margaret Atwood, The Handmaid’s Tale

Molière
“A shoemaker, in making a pair of shoes, cannot spoil a scrap of leather without having to bear the loss; but in our business we may spoil a man without its costing us a farthing. The blunders are never put down to us, and it is always the fault of the fellow who dies. The best of this profession is, that there is the greatest honesty and discretion among the dead; for you never find them complain of the physician who has killed them.”
Molière, Le Médecin Malgré Lui

Plato
“Be of good cheer, then, my dear Crito, and say that you are burying my body only”
Plato, Phaedo

Aldous Huxley
“You can't play Electro-magnetic Golf according to rules of Centrifugal Bumble-puppy.”
Aldous Huxley, Brave New World

Victor Hugo
“This is what men call genius, just as they call a painted face beauty and a richly attired figure majesty. The confound the brilliance of the firmament with the star-shaped footprints of a duck in the mud.”
Hugo, Victor, Les Misérables
