I am reading E.M Forester's A Passage to India. I am early in the book, but if he keeps on wowing me with quotes similar to the following, I will be more than pleased.
"But she did not take the disappointment as seriously ... [she] had learnt that life never gives us what we want at the moment that we consider appropriate. Adventures do occur, but not punctually" (25).

Sorry, that particular quote doesn't "wow" me. But I guess it's a matter of perspective. I don't have underlying dreams of being a writer in that sense. In the same way that I can see some N.T. Wright quote as revolutionary/revelationary that others don't.
