Flann O'Brien
- The Third Policeman
Always ask any questions that are to be asked and never answer any. Turn everything you hear to your own advantage. Always carry a repair outfit. Take left turns as much as possible. Never apply your front brake first.
Neal Marlens and Carol Black
- The Wonder Years
There are times in life when you think you're lost. When every turn you take seems wrong. Then just for a moment, you see a light. And so I began that long climb into the light. Only this time I wasn't alone.
Cormac McCarthy
- Blood Meridian, or the Evening Redness in the West
