- David Mitchell99◆ Delusions are hardly an escape from reality. It's a way of understanding insane people living in a backwards world.
- Shannon L. Alder98◆ Los Angeles was the kind of place where everybody was from somewhere else and nobody really droppped anchor. It was a transient place. People drawn by the dream, people running from the nightmare. Twelve million people and all of them ready to make a break for it if necessary. Figuratively, literally, metaphorically -- any way you want to look at it -- everbody in L.A. keeps a bag packed. Just in case.
- Michael Connelly98◆ The metaphor is so obvious. Easter Island isolated in the Pacific Ocean — once the island got into trouble, there was no way they could get free. There was no other people from whom they could get help. In the same way that we on Planet Earth, if we ruin our own [world], we won't be able to get help.
- Jared Diamond98◆ Eve engaged her On Duty sign and stepped out of the car. Immediately her ears were assaulted with a blast of music. Christmas carols pumped, full blast, into the air. She decided that people ran inside, ready to buy anything, just to escape the noise.
- J.D. Robb98◆ Escape is a consumer goods like another
- Iain Banks98◆ ...to return to their 'native soil,' as they say, to the bosom, so to speak, of their mother earth, like frightened children, yearning to fall asleep on the withered bosom of their decrepit mother, and to sleep there for ever, only to escape the horrors that terrify them.
- Fyodor Dostoyevsky98◆ A smiling lie is a whirlwind, easy to enter, but hard to escape.
- Dejan Stojanovic98◆ They're gone. I let them chase me. I led them like a sunbeam and vanished like a shadow.
- Erin Bow98◆ Vaguely conscious of that great suspense in which we live, we find our escape from its sterile, annihilating reality in many dreams, in religion, passion, art.
- Arthur Symons98◆ There is no such thing as escape after all, only an exchange of one set of difficulties for another. It wasn't Mark or the farm or marriage I was trying to shake loose from but my own imperfect self, and even if I kept moving, she would dog me all the way around the world, forever.
- Kristin Kimball98◆ Yo pensaba que también podía ser heroico escaparse por gusto, sin más, por amor a la libertad y a la alegría—no a la alegría impuesta oficial y mesurada, sino a la carcajada y a la canción que brotan de una fuente cuyas aguas nadie canaliza.
- Carmen Martín Gaite98◆ There is an abandonment, an escape, that physical labor bestows.
- Steven Gould98◆ He awaits himself while walking, out of the icy circle to escape.
- Dejan Stojanovic98◆ The last great escape. I was done gambling, done betting on a ship that would never come in. I would cash in my chips while I was ahead. I didn't want to suffer the growing old, didn't want to wait until my memory went. It was all so tiresome. I would just go out in a blaze of glory before the parasites of sadness got at me and made me bitter. After that's the American way: take your own life before everything else takes it from you.
- Brian James98
