Quotes by Ken Kalfus  (?)

“Light is a particle and a wave. This is hard to understand, how a thing can be two things at once. But a woman is also both a particle and a wave. She’s a wave when you see her reach down to pull a shell from the sea, and you feel her beauty pass through you like electrical current. She’s a particle when her hair brushes your face, and her hands push into yours”
Ken Kalfus, Pu-239 And Other Russian Fantasies

“Her only life ambition was to read every good book that had ever been published.”
Ken Kalfus, Pu-239 And Other Russian Fantasies

“It takes me about a week and a half to read the typical book. I don’t know how many ten-day spans I have left. Eventually the unread books on my shelves will have to be abandoned, or they will join me on the pyre. The book I’m about to purchase may be among them. We all buy books we won’t live to read.”
Ken Kalfus
