Quotes by J.R. Moehringer  (?)
Quotes are added by the Goodreads community and are not verified by Goodreads. (Learn more)

“I hate when people ask what a book is about. People who read for plot, people who suck out the story like the cream filling in an Oreo, should stick to comic strips and soap operas. . . . Every book worth a damn is about emotions and love and death and pain. It's about words. It's about a man dealing with life. Okay?”
J.R. Moehringer

“While I fear that we're drawn to what abandons us, and to what seems most likely to abandon us, in the end I believe we're defined by what embraces us.”
J.R. Moehringer, The Tender Bar: A Memoir

“I don't know. Sometimes I try to say what's on my mind and it comes out sounding like I ate a dictionary and I'm shitting pages. Sorry”
J.R. Moehringer, The Tender Bar: A Memoir
