- "Throw off your worries when you throw off your clothes at night." - Napoleon Bonaparte
- "She knocked me out. I mean it. I was half in love with her by the time we sat down. That's the thing about girls. Every time they do something pretty, even if they're not much to look at, or even if they're sort of stupid, you fall half in love with them, and then you never know where the hell you are. Jesus Christ. They can drive you crazy. They really can." - Holden Caulfield, The Catcher in the Rye by J.D. Salinger
- "Everybody dances to their own boom boom. I can pick up stuff with my toes. Like, not just socks and crap like that, but big things: ketchup bottles, ashtrays, iPods. It's a less useful skill than you think. I'm distantly related to a seventeenth-century French aristocrat called Cecille. She was beheaded during the French Revolution. Her eyes carried on blinking for fourteen seconds after her head was severed from her neck." - Effy Stonem, Skins
- "Snausages? I've been eating dog treats? Why the fuck would you put them on the counter where the rest of the food is? Fuck it, they're delicious. I will not be shamed by this." - Dad, Sh*t My Dad Says by Justin Halpern
