Amor Towles
“Time is that which God uses to separate the idle from the industrious. For time is a mountain and upon seeing its steep incline, the idle will lie down among the lilies of the field and hope that someone passes by with a pitcher of lemonade. What the worthy endeavor requires is planning, effort, attentiveness, and the willingness to clean up.”
Amor Towles, The Lincoln Highway

John Steinbeck
“Perhaps the best conversationalist in the world is the man who helps others to talk.”
John Steinbeck, East of Eden

Amor Towles
“For kindness begins where necessity ends.”
Amor Towles, The Lincoln Highway

“What he taught was very simple. He taught that we are all greater than we know and that wisdom is the means to freedom.”
