Philip Roth
“Sembrava non capire o, anche in un momento di stanchezza, non ammettere che avere dei limiti non era poi una cosa così vergognosa, e che lui stesso non era una casa di pietra di centosettant'anni, il cui peso gravasse su imperturbabili travi di quercia: che era, insomma, qualcosa di più transitorio e misterioso.”
Philip Roth, American Pastoral

Philip Roth
“[...] è la mancanza di rabbia che finisce per uccidere. Mentre l'aggressività depura e guarisce.”
Philip Roth, American Pastoral
