Emily Dickinson
You squeeze the eyedropper, and a drop of pond water drips out onto the microscope stage. You look at the projected image. The drop is full of life - strange beings swimming, crawling, tumbling; high dramas of pursuit and escape, triumph and tragedy. This is a world populated by beings far more exotic than in any science fiction movie...
Carl Sagan

Neal Stephenson
How often had she wondered what would have happened if she'd remained with Jonathan? Not often, but regularly over the years.
