Roald Dahl
“Mr Hemingway says a lot of things I don’t understand, Matilda said to her. 'Especially about men and women. But I loved it all the same. The way he tells it I feel I am right there on the spot watching it all happen.' 'A fine writer will always make you feel that,' Mrs Phelps said . 'And don’t worry about the bits you can’t understand. Sit back and allow the words to wash around you, like music.”
Roald Dahl, Matilda

Lewis Carroll
“I almost wish I hadn't gone down that rabbit-hole—and yet—and yet—it's rather curious, you know, this sort of life!”
Lewis Carroll, Alice's Adventures in Wonderland

Boris Pasternak
“She was obsessed with the idea of breaking with everything she had ever known or experienced, and starting on something new.”
Boris Pasternak, Doctor Zhivago

J.K. Rowling
“Happiness can be found, even in the darkest of times, if one only remembers to turn on the light.”
J.K. Rowling, Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban

Boris Pasternak
“They loved each other greatly. Most people experience love, without noticing that there is anything remarkable about it.
To them - and this made them unusual - the moments when passion visited their doomed human existence like a breath of timelessness were moments of revelation, of even greater understanding of life and of themselves.”
Boris Pasternak, Doctor Zhivago
