J.R.R. Tolkien
“It is not unlikely that they [goblins] invented some of the machines that have since troubled the world, especially the ingenious devices for killing large numbers of people at once, for wheels and engines explosions always delighted them, and also not working with their own hands more than they could help; but in those days and those wild parts they had not advanced (as it is called) so far.”
J.R.R. Tolkien, The Hobbit

Herman Melville
“Are there no Moravians in the Moon, that not a missionary has yet visited this poor pagan planet of ours to civilize civilization and Christianize Christendom?”
Herman Melville, White-Jacket or The World in a Man-of-War

Anne Tyler
“Some kids are raised in a mess," Ada said, "and they say, 'When I'm on my own, I'll be neater than God.' Others are raised in a mess and they say, 'Life is a mess, looks like, and that's just the way it is.' It's got nothing to do with their upbringing.”
Anne Tyler, Redhead by the Side of the Road

Carolyn Sherwin Bailey
“Keep your sap running!”
Carolyn Sherwin Bailey, Miss Hickory

Ammon Shea
“Reading on a computer screen gives you no sense of time or investment. The page always looks the same, and everything is always in the same exact spot. When reading the book, no matter how large or small it is, a tension builds, concurrent with your progress through its pages. I get a nervous excitement as I see the number of pages that remain to be read draining inexorably from the right to the left.”
Ammon Shea, Reading the OED: One Man, One Year, 21,730 Pages
