” ‘You can promise to be as sweet as you want, but picture this: the future is a hospital, packed with sick people, packed with hurt people, people on stretchers in the halls, and suddenly the lights go out, the water shuts off, and you know in your heart that they’re never coming back on. That’s the future.’ ”
From Steven Amsterdam’s Things We Didn’t See Coming (p22).

“For a little while Emma persevered in her silence; but beginning to apprehend the bewitching flattery of that letter to be too powerful, she thought it best to say,

—Emma by Jane Austen
