"It’s a bright June day when you open the recruitment center and hang the sign on the front door that says: ‘Bureau of Evidence. Workers Wanted.’" - Kabeera McCorkle "Last week I was handing out quizzes in my Algebra class when I caught a whiff of cigarette smoke on one of my students, and something lit up my brain like an old pin-ball machine." - A.C. Koch "Poppa’d holler back at her: 'If you want to get away from us, why don’t you up and move to Tronna with the other snooties!'" - Nichole McGill
"He decides to save this fly, for no reason except that such choice lies within his power. He withdraws the pin, then nudges the insect away; surprisingly, it appears little worse for its impaling, barely more dazed than before." - Patrick Roscoe
"I stole the icon one afternoon to get closer to God. I had had a few drinks and it seemed like the right thing to do." - Keith Ebsary "He was a doorman and his friend was a doorman. There they were talking and he was saying yes we do have an unexamined role in society, I've put a lot of thought into that." - Tim Conley
