"«All'attacco, ora! Per il Santo!»
Dalla boscaglia si sollevano grida. I cespugli vengono travolti dalle falcate dei villani che si lanciano di sotto con bastoni e mazze strette in pugno.
Abbasso la visiera dell'elmo e il suono del mio respiro rimbomba contro il ferro.
La terra reclama nuove ossa. Ed è quello che le daremo."

"A vision of Susan occupied my mind and then, as the dreams became more powerful than the thoughts and my subconscious mind rejected the restrictions of my will, it became a vision of the splendid Anna which I was unable or unwilling to reject. I yielded to this night-time prowling of the id, the transformation of thought to dream.
I was asleep.
I awoke in instant terror . . ."

Walter Tevis
“Listening to the two of them, she had felt something unpleasant and familiar: the sense that chess was a thing between men, and she was an outsider. She hated the feeling.”

Cormac McCarthy
“He said that while the huérfano might feel that he no longer belonged among men he must set this feeling aside for he contained within him a largeness of spirit which men could see and that men would wish to know him and that the world would need him even as he needed the world for they were one.”
Cormac McCarthy, The Crossing

“Foreign films, Cliff thought, were more like novels. They didn't care if you liked the main character or not. And Cliff found that intriguing.”
Quentin Tarantino, Once Upon a Time in Hollywood
