John Fowles
“I think we are just insects, we live a bit and then die and that’s the lot. There’s no mercy in things. There’s not even a Great Beyond. There’s nothing.”
John Fowles, The Collector

Roald Dahl
“We have so much time and so little to do. Strike that, reverse it.”
Roald Dahl

John Fowles
“There are many reasons why novelists write but they all have one thing in common a need to create an alternative world.”
John Fowles

John Fowles
“The power of women! I've never felt so full of mysterious power. Men are a joke.
We're so weak physically, so helpless with things. Still, even today. But we're stronger than they are. We can stand their cruelty. They can't stand ours.”
John Fowles, The Collector

Dennis Lehane
“If you are deemed insane, then all actions that would oherwise prove you are not do, in actuality, fall into the framework of an insane person’s actions. Your sound protests constitute denial. Your valid fears are deemed paranoia. Your survival instincts are labeled defense mechanisms. It’s a no-win situation. It’s a death penalty really.”
Dennis Lehane, Shutter Island
