A garland of quotations LXXX

(Perhaps this is cheating, but I thought, to celebrate last week’s release of my latest and potentially last book, I would weave a garland of quotations plucked from that very volume (which is, let me make clear, not exclusively made up of quotations, but also not, you know, devoid of quotation).
