Jonathan Renshaw
“First, the wind would rumble in the distance like an approaching river, then he would see grass bend, pressed by a great invisible hand. The dull rumble would rise in pitch to a swishing, lashing exultation, causing stalks to lie flat against the ground while the tougher branches of shrubs held themselves up and shrieked their defiance in the gusts. Then the first drops, cold and heavy, would plummet from the sky and burst on the ground.”
Jonathan Renshaw, Dawn of Wonder

Fisher Amelie
“Anger is a consuming thing, a burning takeover.

It sets up shop in your heart and head and murders anything else attempting to makes it way in. Life becomes obsessed with it, clouded with it, engrossed in it. You justify feeling with delusions that you're owed retribution. You condone thoughts and vengeful acts, feeding yourself with the idea that it's warranted.

But that nourishment comes at a price. It costs you pieces of your soul, your love, your worth. You disregard your beliefs, your conscience. You adopt apathy like it's salvation because you know in your heart of hearts that you would deteriorate into nothing without it. Because you don't want to let it go. It makes you feel powerful, that anger. It makes you feel important. So you will let it eat you alive, consume every part of you until all that's left is hollow revenge.”
Fisher Amelie, Fury

Chuck Palahniuk
“Since boyhood, fury had become his father. His older brother. His only protector. Fury gave him strength and courage and spurred him to always move forward despite always getting things wrong and always failing and no mentor there to help him or teach him and everyone always laughing. Anger delivered him from catastrophe. Rage kept him from going under. It had come to be his greatest asset and only strategy.”
Chuck Palahniuk, Make Something Up: Stories You Can't Unread

Mokokoma Mokhonoana

Elizabeth Hoyt
“She flew in, all fiery flashing eyes and flushed cheeks, her bosom heaving beneath black wool.
She was magnificent.
"Tell them to let her go!" Séraphine ordered him imperiously. "Tell them to let her go right now."
She stood over him, her lips wet, her body shaking with her rage, and he wanted to take her and roll her beneath him and fuck her into the mattress.”

Aishah Madadiy
“Someone engulfed by fury cannot think rationally.”
Aishah Madadiy, Bits of Heaven

“All that is mild is not heat,
heat, by all account is intense.
Down, down, down into the darkness of the heat,
Gently it goes - the extreme, the big, the blood-and-guts.

Why would you think the burn is hot?
the burn is the most cold hurting of all.
Does the burn make you shiver?
does it?

When I think of fireworks, I see an explosive device.
Do fireworks make you shiver?
do they?”
Olu'gbenga Joseph

Josh Hatcher

“If his men could have seen his young face under his faceplate, or if they could have heard the silent curses rolling off his tongue, they would have realized to their astonishment that their captain, only twenty years of age but already famous and formidable, was crying.

Cindy Skaggs, Fight By The Team

László Krasznahorkai, The Melancholy of Resistance
