“For the first time, she did want more. She did not know what she wanted, knew that it was dangerous and that she should rest content with what she had, but she knew an emptiness deep inside her, which began to ache.”
― Iain Pears, The Dream of Scipio

“Words have a magical power. They can bring either the greatest happiness or deepest despair; they can transfer knowledge from teacher to student; words enable the orator to sway his audience and dictate its decisions. Words are capable of arousing the strongest emotions and prompting all men's actions.”
― Sigmund Freud

“A star falls from the sky and into your hands. Then it seeps through your veins and swims inside your blood and becomes every part of you. And then you have to put it back into the sky. And it's the most painful thing you'll ever have to do and that you've ever done. But what's yours is yours. Whether it’s up in the sky or here in your hands. And one day, it'll fall from the sky and hit you in the head real hard and that time, you won't have to put it back in the sky again.”
― C. JoyBell C.

“Pourquoi est-ce qu'on se met en vacances à des dates déterminées ? C'est assez idiot. Bien sûr l'obligation de gagner sa vie. Mais on devrait prendre des vacances de cinq minutes par-ci par-là, pourquoi pas d'une heure ou deux, d'un jour ou deux tout d'un coup ?”
― André Dhôtel, L'Azur
