“A born detective never needs to be told that everybody lies – he or she has always known it.”
Peter Grainger, Time and Tide

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

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

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

Douglas Adams
“The major problem—one of the major problems, for there are several—one of the many major problems with governing people is that of whom you get to do it; or rather of who manages to get people to let them do it to them.
To summarize: it is a well-known fact that those people who must want to rule people are, ipso facto, those least suited to do it.
To summarize the summary: anyone who is capable of getting themselves made President should on no account be allowed to do the job.”
Douglas Adams, The Restaurant at the End of the Universe
