Fury...sexual, Oedipal, political, magical, brutal....drives us to our finest heights and coarsest depths
~ Salman Rushdie
Life is fury, he'd thought. Fury—sexual, Oedipal, political, magical, brutal—drives us to our finest heights and coarsest depths.

The Furies pursue us; Shiva dances his furious dance to create and also to destroy.
~ Salman Rushdie

~ Alfred Bester
It's figuring out the why of things; the final factor that makes a person act can be so damn elusive, but you can always find some motivation, if you look hard enough.

Her knee caught him between the legs with pitiless accuracy, driving the wind from his chest, making him teeter for a breathless moment, then bringing him down like a sledgehammer to a house of cards.

He was a devil wearing a cow's skin, and she was not fooled.
~ Joe Abercrombie
They are both silent, doubt and grief and fury scuttling between them like beetles in search of a meal. Tetsuo and the girl stare at each other with such deep familiarity that Key feels forgotten, alone—almost ashamed of the dreams that have kept her alive for a decade. They have never felt so hopeless, or so false. "Her name is Key," Tetsuo says, in something like defeat. He turns away, though he makes no move to leave. "She will be your new caretaker.
