    I can't bear the thought of oblivion, Asriel," she continued. "Sooner anything than that. I used to think pain would be worse-to be tortured forever-I thought that must be worse . . .

  9. Milan Kundera _ Encounter

    He looks at houses, chateaus, forests, and thinks about the countless generations who used to see those things and who are gone now; and he understands that everything he is seeing is oblivion; pure oblivion, the oblivion whose absolute state will soon be achieved, the moment he himself is gone.

  10. Philip K. Dick _ Do Androids Dream of Electric

Here there existed no one to record his or anyone else's degradation, and any courage or pride which might manifest itself here at the end would go unmarked: the dead stones, the dust-stricken weeds dry and dying, perceived nothing, recollected nothing, about him or themselves.
