“TWO AND TWO MAKES FIVE”
― George Orwell, 1984

“At one point, trying to explain her unhappiness, Sanna was to say to Miss Love, "I read some psychology books in college. Everything that's supposed to warp a child happened to me." Miss Love, who had been raped as an adolescent, replies, "Everything that could warp a child happened to me, too. But understanding that doesn't help. It's interesting but it doesn't help. I figure that what you do with your life now is all that counts. I try not to look back.”
― Olive Anne Burns , Leaving Cold Sassy: The Unfinished Sequel to Cold Sassy Tree

“This grown man who now phones his father to say, "Motherfucker, I ain't seen pussy so long, I'd throw stones at it.”
― David Sedaris

“However they may have felt when they left they were now committed, they had passed the point of no return.”
― Hubert Selby Jr., Requiem for a Dream
