Arjantinli kurgu yazari, gazeteci ve cevirmen Adolfo Bioy Casares’in dogum yildonumu (15 Eylul 1914)
“Yasam; ayni sahnelerin sonsuz tekrarindan ibarettir. Tiyatrodaki gibi, yasamda da sahneler yineleniyor. / Scenes are repeated in life, just as they are in the theatre.”

“Butun bu insanlardan ve bitmez tukenmez faaliyetlerinden tiksinti duyuyordum, igreniyordum neredeyse. / I experienced a feeling of scorn, almost disgust, for these people and their indefatigable, repetitious activity.
“Ve bir gun, daha eksiksiz bir alet bulunacak. Yasam boyunca -ya da kaydedilen anlar suresince- dusundugumuz ya da hissettigimiz seyler sayesinde goruntunun her seyi anlamayi surdurecegi (tipki bizim bir alfabenin harfleriyle anlayabildigimiz ve butun sozcukleri olusturdugumuz gibi) bir alfabe gibi olacak. O zaman yasam olumun bir deposu olacak. Ama o anda bile goruntu yasamayacak; ozunde yeni nesneleri tanimayacak. Ancak hissettigi ve dusundugu seyleri, ya da hissettigi ve dusundugu seylerin daha sonraki duzenlenisni taniyacak. Zamanin ve uzayin disinda hicbir seyi anlayamayisimiz, belki de yasamimizin, bu alet yoluyla elde edilecek yasamdan daha degisik olmadigini dusunmemizi saglayacakti.”

“And someday there will be a more complete machine. One's thoughts and feelings during life—or while the machine is recording—will be like an alphabet with which the image will continue to comprehend all experience (as we can form all the words in our language with the letters of the alphabet). Then life will be a repository for death. But even then the image will not be alive; objects that are essentially new will not exist for it. It will know only what it has already thought or felt, or the possible transpositions of those thoughts and feelings.The fact that we cannot understand anything outside of time and space may perhaps suggest that our life is not appreciably different from the survival to be obtained by this machine.”

C. S. Lewis, Safak Yildizi'nin Yolculugu (The Voyage of the Dawn Treader - Il viaggio del veliero) romanini 15 Eylul 1952 tarihinde Geoffrey Bles araciligiyla yayimladi.
“Yurumek sorun olmayacaktı. Eğer insan bir süredir denizdeyse karaya ilk ayak bastiginda yer bir gemiymis de asagi yukari hareket ediyormus gibi hisseder. Ama ne olursa olsun tekrar karada yurumek topragi ve otlari hissetmek harikaydi. Burasi gemiden cok daha sicakti ve Lucy sahilde yururken kumlarin ayaklarina iyi geldigini fark etmisti. Bir tarlakusu sarki soyluyordu.”

“It was delightful to be ashore again and to smell the earth and grass, even if at first the ground seemed to be pitching up and down like a ship, as it usually does for a while if one has been at sea. It was much warmer here than it had been on board and Lucy found the sand pleasant to her feet as they crossed it. There was a lark singing.”

“Write. Just write. Start. And read as much as you can. Read widely and read different things, and sometimes while immersed in the multitude voices of others, you just might find your own.”

Stephen King, IT romanini 15 Eylul 1986 tarihinde Viking Press Company araciligiyla yayimlandi.
“Belki iyi veya kotu arkadas diye bir sey yoktur, dedi kendi kendine. Sadece arkadas vardir, incindiginde yardima gelen ve kendini yalniz hissetmemeni saglayan kisilerdir onlar. Belki onlar ugruna korkmaya, onlarla umutlanmaya ve onlar icin yasamaya deger. Belki olmeye de deger. Is o noktaya gelirse. Ne iyi arkadas, ne kotu arkadas. Yalnizca yaninda olmayi istedigin, yaninda olmaya ihtiyac duydugun, kalbinde yer edinen insanlar.”

“Maybe there aren't any such things as good friends or bad friends - maybe there are just friends, people who stand by you when you're hurt and who help you feel not so lonely. Maybe they're always worth being scared for, and hoping for, and living for. Maybe worth dying for too, if that's what has to be. No good friends. No bad friends. Only people you want, need to be with; people who build their houses in your heart.”

1947 yilinda Kralin Tum Adamlari (All the King's Men) romaniyla kurgu dalinda Pulitzer Odulunu kazanan Amerikali sair, roman yazari ve edebi elestirmen Robert Penn Warren'in olum yildonumu (15 Eylul 1989)
"Benlik, onceden var olan bir oz; zamanin ve degisimin otesindeki mistik bir alemde bulunan bir idea olarak oz seklindeki Platon dusuncesini cagristirir. Absurtlugun ozu de burada, cunku benlik asla bulunamaz, benlik yaratilmalidir. Pasif, sen bir tesaduf degil, binlerce eylemin urunudur; buyuk ya da kucuk, bilincli ya da bilincsiz, 'her seyden uzakta' degil 'her seyle' yuz yuze, iyi ya da kotu, bos zamanda degil, hem calisirken hem de dinlenirken."

"Lurks the idea that the self is a pre-existing entity, a self like a Platonic idea existing in a mystic realm beyond time and change. And the essence of absurdity, too, for the self is never to be found, but must be created, not the happy accident of passivity, but the product of a thousand actions, large and small, conscious or unconscious, performed not 'away from it all,' but in the face of 'it all,' for better or for worse, in work and leisure rather than in free time."
