"And, in truth, Pooch is growing into a fine young woman: slender fingers where her paw once were, cheeks coverd with little more than a peachy down. She is, after all, pedigreed, which is more than one can say for her adopted family."
ur Carmen Dog av Carol Emshwiller.
"Det jag nu säger gäller för mig här och nu, det gäller inte för alla överallt och inte för mig alltid.

ur "The Toy Theater" i The Island of Doctor Death and Other Stories and other stories av Gene Wolfe
