Cormac McCarthy
“Men of God and men of war have strange affinities.”
Cormac McCarthy, Blood Meridian, or, the Evening Redness in the West

William Styron
“This was not judgment day - only morning. Morning: excellent and fair.”
William Styron, Sophie’s Choice

Shirley Jackson
“My name is Mary Katherine Blackwood. I am eighteen years old, and I live with my sister Constance. I have often thought that with any luck at all, I could have been born a werewolf, because the two middle fingers on both my hands are the same length, but I have had to be content with what I had. I dislike washing myself, and dogs, and noise. I like my sister Constance, and Richard Plantagenet, and Amanita phalloides, the death-cup mushroom. Everyone else in our family is dead.”
Shirley Jackson, We Have Always Lived in the Castle

A.A. Milne
“The other day I met a man who didn't know where Tripoli was. Tripoli happened to come into the conversation, and he was evidently at a loss. "Let's see," he said. "Tripoli is just down by the - er - you know. What's the name of that place?" "That's right," I answered, "just opposite, Thingumabob. I could show you in a minute on a map. It's near - what do they call it?" At this moment the train stopped, and I got out and went straight home to look at my atlas.”
A.A. Milne, If I May

Cormac McCarthy
“I ain't got an original thought in my head. If it ain't got the scent of divinity to it, I ain't interested in it”
Cormac McCarthy, The Sunset Limited
