Alan Paton
“It is the duty of a judge to do justice, but it is only the people who can be just”
Alan Paton, Cry, the Beloved Country

Betty  Smith
“But the penciled sheets did not seem like nor smell like the library book so she had given it up, consoling herself with the vow that when she grew up, she would work hard, save money and buy every single book that she liked.”
Betty Smith, A Tree Grows in Brooklyn

Patrick Süskind
“القاعدة الثانية تقول بأن العطر يعيش مع الزمن ، فله مراحل شبابه ونضجه وشيخوخته وفقط عندما يتخطى مراحل العمر المختلفة محافظا على أريجه بالوتيرة ذاتها يعتبر عطرا ناجحا.”
Patrick Süskind, Perfume: The Story of a Murderer

Vladimir Nabokov
“It is late now, I am a bit tired; the sky is irritated by stars. And I love you, I love you, I love you – and perhaps this is how the whole enormous world, shining all over, can be created – out of five vowels and three consonants.”
Vladimir Nabokov, Letters to Vera

“The bar staff and croupiers all wore black with the same green triangle logo emblazoned on their shirts, and contact lenses which made their eyes shine an eerie, vibrant green. The bar optics glowed with the same green light, the intensity of which was linked to the music. As the bartender walked away to fetch the drinks, a breakdown in the techno track commenced and the bottles began to palpitate. The bartender's eyes glowed with a hallucinatory felinity that made Mangle feel nervous.”
R.D. Ronald, The Zombie Room
