Kyle Keyes
“Donde, he offered a piece of candy to a little
   boy.”
Kyle Keyes, Under the Bus

Roald Dahl
“You chose books, I chose looks . Now see the difference?”
Roald Dahl

Bill Bryson
“Take a moment from time to time to remember that you are alive. I know this sounds a trifle obvious, but it is amazing how little time we take to remark upon this singular and gratifying fact. By the most astounding stroke of luck an infinitesimal portion of all the matter in the universe came together to create you and for the tiniest moment in the great span of eternity you have the incomparable privilege to exist.”
Bill Bryson, I'm a Stranger Here Myself: Notes on Returning to America After Twenty Years Away

Anna Sewell
“Whilst I was young I lived upon my mother's milk, as I could not eat grass. In the daytime I ran by her side, and at night I lay down close by her. When it was hot we used to stand by the pond in the shade of the trees, and when it was cold, we had a nice warm shed near the plantation.”
Anna Sewell, Black Beauty

Robert Musil
“Utopiile se aseamănă cu posibilitățile; din faptul că o posibilitate nu este o realitate nu se deduce nimic altceva decât că circumstanțele în care se află împiedică punerea ei în aplicare, căci altminteri ea ar fi doar o imposibilitate; însă dacă este eliberată de constrângeri și i se permite să se dezvolte, se creează utopia.”
Robert Musil, The Man Without Qualities
