Leonard Cohen
“My interest in this pack of failures betrays my character.”
Leonard Cohen, Beautiful Losers

Rebecca Wells
“Sidda was tired of being vigilant, alert, sharp. She longed for porch friendship, for the sticky, hot sensation of familiar female legs thrown over hers in companionship. She pined for the girlness of it all, the unplanned, improvisational laziness. She wanted to soak the words "time management" out of her lexicon. She wanted to hand over, to yield, to let herself float down into the uncharted beautiful fertile musky swamp of life, where creativity and eroticism and deep intelligence dwell.”
Rebecca Wells, Divine Secrets of the Ya-Ya Sisterhood

Margaret Atwood
“What a lost person needs is a map of the territory, with his own position marked on it so he can see where he is in relation to everything else. Literature is not only a mirror; it is also a map, a geography of the mind. Our literature is one such map, if we can learn to read it as our literature, as the product of who and where we have been. We need such a map desperately, we need to know about here, because here is where we live. For the members of a country or a culture, shared knowledge of their place, their here, is not a luxury but a necessity. Without that knowledge we will not survive.”
Margaret Atwood, Survival: A Thematic Guide to Canadian Literature

Milan Kundera
“It takes so little, so infinitely little, for a person to cross the border beyond which everything loses meaning: love, convictions, faith, history. Human life -- and herein lies its secret -- takes place in the immediate proximity of that border, even in direct contact with it; it is not miles away, but a fraction of an inch.”
Milan Kundera, The Book of Laughter and Forgetting

Kate Atkinson
“Love was the hardest thing. Don't let anyone ever tell you different.”
Kate Atkinson, One Good Turn
