William Goldman, The Princess Bride

Frank Herbert
“Behold, as a wild ass in the desert, go I forth to my work.”
Frank Herbert, Dune

Tennessee Williams
“Make voyages. Attempt them. There's nothing else.”
Tennesse Williams, Camino Real

Ovid
“Dripping water hollows out stone, not through force but through persistence.”
Ovid
