Tell me a line in a book that changed how you see the world or shifted your understanding of how language can be used or just haunts you for reasons you don’t quite understand and maybe never will. A line that just pops into your mind unbidden, like some weird internal narration.
It's trivial but "Time is an illusion, lunchtime doubly so" from Douglas Adams stuck with me. I think his writing had a significant impact on my taste in humour
