“The Lord of the Rings is a million times more interesting than mere literature, which is why mere literary critics cannot get to grips with it.”
Robert McNeil

Robert Silverberg
“They were wise in their own skills, but most of them seemed to think that that made them wise in everything, which did not appear to be the case.”
Robert Silverberg, Enter a Soldier. Later: Enter Another

Michael    Connelly
“from the short story, Cielo Azul

“Harry, get an ambulance.”

I stood up and stepped back from the scene. I felt my chest growing tight, a clarity of thought coming over me. In all my years I had spoken for the dead many times. I had avenged the dead. I was at home with the dead. But I had never so clearly had a part in pulling someone away from the outstretched hands of death.

And in that moment I knew we had done just that. And I knew that whatever happened afterward and wherever my life took me, I would always have this moment, that it would be a light that could lead me out of the darkest of tunnels.”
Michael Connelly, Suicide Run

Stephen Hunter
“Because I'm too old for tragedy. I like a nice happy ending too.”
Stephen Hunter, Point of Impact

Craig Rice
“Everything, he decided, was almost unbearably sad. Life was wonderful, but nobody seemed to know what to do with it, and the world was beautiful, but nobody looked at it except tourists.”
Craig Rice, Trial by Fury
