Loki, Query, The Timegod.

Had to resurrect the game because I had a laugh out loud moment reading a book today.

"If you're pretty, they think you have no brains. And if you let it be known that you do, then you're uglier than a wall-eyed goose, and more dangerous than a blade."

Give me speaker & book

"wall-eyed goose" made me laugh!

Apologies for the delay- I've been several hundred miles away from my books, and my memory is suspect, at best!

Let me know if this is too small a sample.

That's pretty generic...
In the 60’s, people took acid to make the world weird. Now the world is weird and people take Prozac to make it normal.

You're right!
That quote is from Flash- character Eric Wong speaking to Jonat DeVrai.

How about:

"There's much written about the pleasures of the simple life, but most of it was written by those who have not experienced it."
