Patti Smith
“I was superstitious. Today was a Monday. I was born on Monday. It was a good day to arrive in New York City. No one expected me. Everything awaited me.”
Patti Smith, Just Kids

Patrick Leigh Fermor
“All horsepower corrupts.”
Patrick Leigh Fermor, A Time of Gifts

Antoine de Saint-Exupéry
“One runs the risk of weeping a little, if one lets himself be tamed.”
Antoine de Saint-Exupéry, The Little Prince

Brendan Behan
“I sat beside Charlie. Opposite us, in the Black Maria, was a red-haired boy of my own age, and a small man with a broken nose, a cauliflower ear, and a begrudging look. He was going up for kicking his wife. He was not unfriendly, and told me his name was Donohoe. I said that by a coincidence that was my mother’s name. It was not her name, but civility costs nothing.”
Brendan Behan, Borstal Boy

Ia Genberg
“Ever since my friendship with Niki I think of the anecdote as a form of chronic illness that attaches itself to some people; that compulsion to tell everything in the shape of a story, to turn life into a formula meant to captivate, impress, upset, or inspire laughter. An anecdote is a sealed box that cannot yield anything other than more sealed boxes until every party to the conversation - or the
"so-called conversation" as Niki would put it - sits there with their own pile of sealed boxes, mentally obstructed, tied to the mast, and with the anecdote next in line tugging at their attention.”
Ia Genberg, Detaljerna
