Terry Pratchett
“Magic never dies. It merely fades away.”
Terry Pratchett, The Color of Magic

Kurt Vonnegut Jr.
“Sometimes,” said Helmholtz, “I get so lonely and disgusted, I don’t see how I can stand it. I feel like doing all kinds of crazy things, just for the heck of it—things that might even be bad for me.” Jim blew a smoke ring expertly. “And then!” said Helmholtz. He snapped his fingers and honked his horn. “And then, Jim, I remember I’ve got at least one tiny corner of the universe I can make just the way I want it! I can go to it and gloat over it until I’m brand-new and happy again.”
Kurt Vonnegut, Welcome to the Monkey House

Kurt Vonnegut Jr.
“That's one thing Earthlings might learn to do, if they tried hard enough: Ignore the awful times and concentrate on the good ones.”
Kurt Vonnegut, Slaughterhouse-Five

Neil Gaiman
“If you want to imagine the future, imagine a boy and his dog and his friends. And a summer that never ends.”
Neil Gaiman & Terry Pratchett, Good Omens: The Nice and Accurate Prophecies of Agnes Nutter, Witch

Bernhard Schlink
“Doing history means building bridges between the past and the present, observing both banks of the river, taking an active part on both sides.”
Bernhard Schlink, The Reader
