“Why are you being so stingy?", Sobakevich demanded. "It's cheap at the price. A rogue would cheat you, sell you some worthless rubbish instead of souls, but mine are as juicy as ripe nuts, all picked—they are all either craftsmen or sturdy peasants.”

Dead Souls • Nikolai Gogol

“I laugh at it today, now that I have had all the good of it. Let the bridge blow up, provided I have got my troops across... Nonetheless, that book was a terrible risk. A transparent leaf separates it from madness.”

Ulysses • James Joyce

“It is a true saying that a man must eat a peck of salt with his friend before he knows him.”

Don Quixote • Miguel De Cervantes

“Variant translation: Somebody must have slandered Joseph K., for without having done anything wrong he was arrested one fine morning.”

The Trial • Franz Kafka

“Those who believe themselves wise regard as real only the appearance of things, but these fashioners of falsehood will have their reward.”

Fragments • Heraclitus
