Neal Stephenson
“In the wilderness, only the most terrible beasts of prey cavort and gambol. Deer and rabbits play no games.”
Neal Stephenson, Quicksilver

Italo Calvino
“He was staring hard, not at his wife and me but at his daughter watching us. In his cold pupil, in the firm twist of his lips, was reflected Madame Miyagi's orgasm reflected in her daughter's gaze.”
Italo Calvino, If on a Winter’s Night a Traveler

Eric Hoffer
“The conservatism of a religion - it's orthodoxy - is the inert coagulum of a once highly reactive sap.”
Eric Hoffer, The True Believer: Thoughts on the Nature of Mass Movements

Douglas Adams
“The major problemâ€�one of the major problems, for there are several—one of the many major problems with governing people is that of whom you get to do it; or rather of who manages to get people to let them do it to them.
To summarize: it is a well-known fact that those people who must want to rule people are, ipso facto, those least suited to do it.
To summarize the summary: anyone who is capable of getting themselves made President should on no account be allowed to do the job.”
Douglas Adams, The Restaurant at the End of the Universe

Italo Calvino
“I lowered my hands to try to save from disorder the arrangement of the tleaves and flowers; meanwhile, she was also dealing with the branches, leaning forward; and so it happened that at the very moment when one of my hands slipped in confusion between Madame Miyagi's kimono and her bare skin and found itself clasping a soft and warm breast, elongated in form, one of the lady's hands, from among the branches keiyaki [translator's note: in Europe called Caucasian elm], had reached my member and was holding it in a firm, frank grasp, drawing it from my garments as if she were performing the operation of stripping away leaves.”
Italo Calvino
