- 2010, Jennifer Egan, A Visit from the Goon Squad, Corsair (2011), page 137:
- She was aware of a perverse flicker of thought in herself: If this idea did, somehow, have legs (which it almost certainly did not – it was crazy, maybe illegal, unsavory to the point of grotesqueness), then she’d want to get a real writer on it.
