Metamorphosis and Other Stories • Franz Kafka“It takes great courage to back truth unacceptable to our times. There's a punishment for it, and it's usually crucifixion.”
East Of Eden • John Steinbeck“Spiritual wants and instincts are as various in the human family as are physical appetites, complexions, and features, and a man is only at his best, morally, when he is equipped with the religious garment whose color and shape and size most nicely accomodate themselves to the spiritual complexion, angularities, and stature of the individual who wears it.”
A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur's Court • Mark Twain“In the little world in which children have their existence whosoever brings them up, there is nothing so finely perceived and so finely felt, as injustice. It may be only small injustice that the child can be exposed to; but the child is small, and its world is small, and its rocking-horse stands as many hands high, according to scale, as a big-boned Irish hunter.”
Great Expectations • Charles Dickens“The one great principle of the English law is, to make business for itself.”
Bleak House • Charles Dickens
