Joan Didion
“In theory these mementos serve to bring back the moment.
In fact they serve only to make clear how inadequately I appreciated the moment when it was here.
How inadequately I appreciated the moment when it was here is something else I could never afford to see.”
Joan Didion, Blue Nights

John Steinbeck
“But it isn’t silly, this preoccupation with small time units. One thing late or early can disrupt everything around it, and the disturbance tuns outward in bands like the waves from a dropped stone in a quiet pool.”
John Steinbeck, East of Eden

John Steinbeck
“We're a violent people, Cal. Does it seem strange to you that I include myself? Maybe it's true, that we are all descendants of the restless, the nervous, the criminals, the arguers, and brawlers. But also the brave, and independent, and generous. If our ancestors hadn't been that, they would've stayed in their home plots in the other world and starved over the squeezed-out soil.”
John Steinbeck, East of Eden

John Steinbeck
“He remembered hearing a doctor say, "I love to deliver a baby, because if I do my work well, there's joy at the end of it."
The sheriff had thought often of that remark. It seemed to him that if he did his work well there was sorrow at the end of it for somebody. The fact that it was necessary was losing its weight with him. He would be retiring soon whether he wanted to or not.”
John Steinbeck, East of Eden

Paulo Coelho
“When something evolves, everything around that thing evolves as well.”
Paulo Coelho, The Alchemist
