3. "Eräs tuttu mies kysyi joskus, luinko sen lopulta loppuun asti. Hän arveli, ettei itse voisi lukea, koska "kokemus olisi niin masentava". Niin, luin kirjan ja menetin viikon yöunet. Mutta olen silti yhä tässä, voin hyvin. Juuri siksi juuri sellaiset kirjat on luettava. Tietäminen on vähintä, mitä voimme tehdä. Olemme sen velkaa."
Author: Anu Silfverberg

"Vaikka koko maailma vihaisi sinua ja pitäisi sinua pahana, mutta omatuntosi hyväksyisi sinut ja vapauttaisi sinut syytöksistä, et olisi vailla ystävää.""En, tiedän että voisin hyväksyä itseni, mutta se ei riitä! Jos muut eivät rakasta minua, kuolen mieluummin kuin elän - en jaksa kestää yksinäisyyttä ja vihaa, Helen. Katsohan, saadakseni osakseni hiukan rakkautta sinun tai neiti Templen tai jonkun muun rakastamani ihmisen taholta antaisin mielelläni vaikka katkaista käteni, tai antautuisin härän puskettavaksi, tai asettuisin seisomaan potkivan hevosen taakse, niin että se voisi iskeä kavioillaan rintaani -""Vaikene jo, Jane, sinulla on liian suuret luulot ihmisten rakkaudesta. Olet liian kiihkeä, liian raju. - -"
Author: Charlotte Brontë

7. "The shells had landed on the cobblestone road."Sonsofbitches," Wiseman muttered.We looked up and grinned at each other."Here they come again!"Sitting in an inch of water. I closed my eyes, gritted my teeth, held my breath, and clutched my elbows with my arms around my knees.Three more shells came in, low and angry, and burst in the orchard. "They're walking 'em towards us," I whispered.I felt as if a giant with exploding iron fingers were looking for me, tearing up the ground as he came. I wanted to strike at him, to kill him, to stop him before he ripped into me, but I could do nothing. Sit and take it, sit and take it. The giant raked the orchard and tore up the roads and stumbled toward us in a terrible blind wrath as we sat in our hole with our heads between our legs and curses on our lips."
Author: David Kenyon Webster

8. "…But the raven, sitting lonely on the placid bust, spoke only,That one word, as if his soul in that one word he did outpour.Nothing further then he uttered - not a feather then he fluttered -Till I scarcely more than muttered `Other friends have flown before -On the morrow he will leave me, as my hopes have flown before.'Then the bird said, `Nevermore.'…"
Author: Edgar Allan Poe

9. "Näyttämön varsinainen jännitys on siinä, että jokin voi mennä vikaan minä hetkenä hyvänsä. Minä hetkenä hyvänsä jokin lavalla voi särkyä tai kaatua; joku voi sotkea vuorosanansa, joku voi pilata valot, joku voi unohtaa korostuksensa tai repliikkinsä. Elokuvan katsominen ei koskaan herätä samaa pelokkuutta, koska lopputulos on aina valmis, ania sama ja aina eheä, mutta näytelmän katsominen herättää sitä usein, koska jokin voi mennä vikaan, ja silloin joutuu katselemaan myötähäpeisin tuntein miten näyttelijät takeltelevat ja kokoavat itsensä. Mutta toisaalta, kun on teatterisalin silkinpehmeässä pimeässä, sitä myös toivoo, että jokin menisi vikaan. Sitä haluaa koko sydämestään. Sitä tuntee lämpöä jokaista näyttelijää kohtaan, jonka hattu putoaa tai nappi irtoaa. -- Jos näkee virheen, joka jää muulta yleisöltä näkemättä, sitä tuntee oikein erityistä etuoikeuden tunnetta, aivan kuin olisi nähnyt vilaukselta sauman kätketystä alusvaatteesta, jostain todella yksityisestä."
Author: Eleanor Catton

10. "Take deep slow breaths," it told her. "It will calm you."Calm her? Slow breaths? Instead she sucked in a breath to tell it togo to hell, but ended up sending her late-night snack spewing across thedragon's foot.Staring down, it muttered, "Oh, that's just vile."Talaith's eyes narrowed and suddenly she found her voice. "And yet, Ifeel remarkably better," she sneered."
Author: G.A. Aiken

Author: Galileo Galilei

12. "I was baptized one foggy afternoon about four o'clock. I couldn't think of any names I particularly wanted, so I kept my old name. I was alone with the fat priest; it was all very quickly and formally done, while someone at a children's service muttered in another chapel. Then we shook hands and I went off to a salmon tea, and the dog which had been sick again on the mat. Before that I had made a general confession to another priest: it was like a life photographed as it came to mind, without any order, full of gaps, giving at best a general impression. I couldn't help feeling all the way to the newspaper office, past the Post Office, the Moroccan café, the ancient whore, that I had got somewhere new by way of memories I hadn't known I possessed. I had taken up the thread of life from very far back, from as far back as innocence."
Author: Graham Greene

13. "What the f*ck do you want from me?"He had to laugh. "Please. If I were running this show, you'd have had her back down here months ago and I'd be long f*cking gone."Tohr laughed a little in surprise."Aw, come on, my man," Lassiter muttered. "I don't want to screw you. You're too flat chested, for one thing—I'm a boob man. And for another, you're a good guy. You deserve better than this."Now Tohr looked downright shocked."
Author: J.R. Ward

14. "Come on," Alec said, already stomping down the ramp. "Let's find us a squirrel." He swept the weapon back and forth as he walked, looking for any interlopers. "Or better yet, one of the crazies who might've strayed over here. Too bad these things have to be charged or we could get rid of this virus problem in a jiffy. Sweep these old neighborhoods nice and clean."Mark joined him on the ground below the Berg, wary that someone might be watching from the ruined homes surrounding them or from the burnt woods beyond those. "Your value of human life brings tears to my eyes," he muttered."
Author: James Dashner

15. "Mr Leopold Bloom ate with relish the inner organs of beasts and fowls. He liked thick giblet soup, nutty gizzards, a stuffed roast heart, liverslices fried with crustcrumbs, fried hencods' roes. Most of all he liked grilled mutton kidneys which gave to his palate a fine tang of faintly scented urine."

Author: Julie Kagawa

22. "You're not old enough to have a real boyfriend," he muttered. I stiffened."If I'm old enough to have babies, then I'm damn well old enough to have a boyfriend," I ground out. "And just as soon as I decide on who it's going to be, I'll let you know."
Author: Katherine Allred

23. "Aidan,"…He held up his finger. "One second, babe. I gotta finish telling Pesh this story.""But my water broke."Without taking his eyes of Pesh, Aidan slid his glass of water over to her. "Here take mine."If the situation hadn't been dire, Megan would have laughed at how oblivious Aidan was. Pesh leaned forward in his seat. "Um, Aidan, I think-"He didn't get a chance to finish. Instead, water splashed across the side of Aidan's face. He shot out of his chair before whirling around to Emma. "What the hell, Em?""My. Water. Broke," she muttered through gritted teeth."Oh shit," he replied."

31. "Jokainen on nähnyt, miten vesi juoksee vesikellosta. Samalla tavoin kuluu ihmisen aika, mutta ihmisen aikaa ei voi mitata vesikellon mukaan, vaan ainoastaan kaiken sen mukaan mitä ihmiselle tapahtuu. Tämä on suuri ja ylevä totuus ja täysin ihminen ymmärtää sen vasta vanhuutensa päivinä, jolloin hänen aikansa juoksee hukkaan eikä hänelle enää tapahdu mitään, vaikka hän luulee paljonkin tapahtuvan ja vasta jälkeenpäin huomaa, ettei mitään ole tapahtunut. Sillä kun ihmiselle tapahtuu paljon ja hänen sydämensä muuttuu ja vaihtaa muotoaan, silloin voi yksi ainoa päivä olla hänelle pitempi kuin vuosi ja kaksi vuotta, jotka hän tekee työtä ja elää yksinkertaista elämää itse muuttumatta."
Author: Mika Waltari

36. "Kovacs to a female believer in New Revelation: "..I'm calling you a gutless betrayer of your sex. I can see your husband's angle, he's a man, he's got everything to gain from this crapshit. But you? You've thrown away centuries of political struggle and scientific advance so you can sit in the dark and mutter your superstitions of unworth to yourself. You'll let your life, the most precious thing you have, be stolen from you hour by hour and day by day as long as you can eke out the existence your males will let you have. And then, when you finally die, and I hope it's soon, sister, I really do, then at the last you'll spite your own potential and shirk the final power we've won for ourselves to come back and try again. You'll do all of this because of your fucking faith, and if that child in your belly is female, then you'll condemn her to the same fucking thing"

37. "It pleased him to imagine God as someone like his mother, someone beleagured by too many responsibilities, too dog-tired to monitor an energetic boy every minute of the day, but who, out of love and fear for his safety, checked in on him whenever she could. Was this so crazy? ...Miles liked the idea of a God who, when He at last had the oppotunity to return His attention to His children, might shake His head with wonder and mutter, "Jesus. Look what they're up to now." A distractible God, perhaps, one who'd be startled to discover so many of His children way up in trees since the last time He looked. A God whose hand would go rushing to His mouth in fear in that instant of recognition that - good God! - that kid's going to hurt himself. A God who could be surprised by unanticipated pride - glory be, that boy is a climber!"

Why, once a man is finished growing, he still has twenty years of youth. After that, he has twenty years of middle age. Then, unless misfortune strikes, nature gives him twenty thoughtful years of old age. Why do you call that quickly?' And with that, the tilling man wiped his sweaty brow and continued tilling; and the dejected Isaac continued wandering. 'Stupid fool!' Isaac muttered quietly to himself as soon as he was far enough away not to be heard."
Author: Roman Payne

42. "Great party, Max!' Amy congratulated. Marvin hung back, watching their exchange. 'Anything for Jessie,' Max muttered, but his eyes were completely on Amy. Amy dressed as...'Little Red Riding Hood?' I gulped. Uh-oh. 'The same.' She laughed, doing a little spin so her head fell back, her short cape ruffled and her brilliant red hair whipped loose. A low cut blouse did double duty, exposing the thinnest hint of both cleavage and midriff. Max gaped. 'You even have'-he stuttered-'a an amazingly well-packed basket of goodies.' Ohhh...I looked. Thank God. Amy was actually carrying a basket."

And I'm not your woman, you big, arrogant, lying, betraying…faery loving…" She searched for the perfect insult and couldn't find one, "…Scot." She gave a very unladylike snort. "Happy now? That fiery enough for you?"

49. "Without any wind blowing, the sheer weight of a raindrop, shining in parasitic luxury on a cordate leaf, caused its tip to dip, and what looked like a globule of quicksilver performed a sudden glissando down the centre vein, and then, having shed its bright load, the relieved leaf unbent. Tip, leaf, dip, relief - the instant it all took to happen seemed to me not so much a fraction of time as a fissure in it, a missed heartbeat, which was refunded at once by a patter of rhymes: I say 'patter' intentionally, for when a gust of wind did come, the trees would briskly start to drip all together in as crude an imitation of the recent downpour as the stanza I was already muttering resembled the shock of wonder I had experienced when for a moment heart and leaf had been one."
Author: Vladimir Nabokov

50. "In the molten fire where he lay he could watch the slow machinations of eternity, the cosmic miracle of each second being born, eggshaped, silverplated, phallic, time thrusting itself gleaming through the worn and worthless husk of the microsecond previous, halting, beginning to show the slow and infinitesimal accreations of decay in the clocking away of life in a mechanism encoded at the moment of conception, withering, shunted aside by time's next orgasmic thrust, and all to the beating of some galactic heart, to voices, a madman's mutterings from a snare in the web of the world."
Author: William Gay
