So, the untitled short story that I started forever ago is finally getting some good work done on it. Like all of my work, I'm trying to tinker with the structure of it. In this particular piece, I've made the narrator a highly studious polyglot. Because of this, I'm trying to find a bunch of good little quips from authors outside of the English language that I can use to further the story. Any recommendations for pre-1900 foreign language authors would be awesome (I already have Goethe, de Sade, and Cervantes).

For anyone who might be waiting to read the story, my research and procrastination are your enemies to blame. Since they are ideas, they are bulletproof (thank you V!). So, you're just gonna have to wait like myself and everyone else.

Now that I think about it, that sounded really pretentious. Like I expect a ton of people to read this or something. Using the word "pretentious" is also pretty pretentious nowadays. Anyhoo, enough rambling...
