Lucas’s Quotes

“We are all born mad. Some remain so.”
― Samuel Beckett

“My message will be very clear; it is that I think we have to continue to read novels. Because I think that the novel is a very good means to question the current world without having an answer that is too schematic, too automatic. The novelist, he’s not a philosopher, not a technician of spoken language. He’s someone who writes, above all, and through the novel asks questions.”
― Jean-Marie G. Le Clezio

“Stories may well be lies, but they are good lies that say true things, and which can sometimes pay the rent.”

“No fiction is worth reading except for entertainment. If it entertains and is clean, it is good literature, or its kind. If it forms the habit of reading, in people who might not read otherwise, it is the best literature.”
― Edgar Rice Burroughs
