“«Questo lo so» esclamò Landen «e ne sono del tutto d'accordo. Mi piacerebbe tanto capire perché ti sei tirata indietro. Dai la caccia a super criminali, all'OPS affronti rischi enormi, disubbidisci agli ordini per recuperare i tuoi compagni feriti sotto un intenso fuoco di artiglieria, eppure...» «Ho capito. Non saprei. Probabilmente le decisioni su questioni di vita o di morte sono più facili da prendere perché sono radicali, bianco o nero. Le affronto meglio perché è più facile. Le emozioni umane, be'... sono un'infinita gradazione di grigi e io non mi trovo bene con le mezze tinte».”

“After all, reading is arguably a far more creative and imaginative process than writing; when the reader creates emotion in their head, or the colors of the sky during the setting sun, or the smell of a warm summer's breeze on their face, they should reserve as much praise for themselves as they do for the writer - perhaps more.”

“Once upon a midnight dreary, while I pondered weak and weary, O’er a plan to venge myself upon that cursed Thursday Next- This Eyre affair, so surprising, gives my soul such loath despising, Here I plot my temper rising, rising from my jail of text. “Get me out!” I said, advising, “Pluck me from this jail of text- or I swear I’ll wring your neck!”

“Journeys up the Metaphoric River are hugely enjoyable and highly recommended. Since every genre is nourished by its heady waters, a paddle steamer can take even the most walk-shy tourists to their chosen destination. As a bonus, there is traditionally at least one murder on board each trip--a "consideration" to the head steward will ensure that it is not you.”
