Jean-Claude Izzo
“Sometimes, all it takes is one gesture, one word, to change the course of someone's life. Even if you know it won't last forever.”
Jean-Claude Izzo, Total Chaos

Janet Fitch
“Don't turn over the rocks if you don't want to see the pale creatures who live under them.”
Janet Fitch, White Oleander

Jean-Claude Izzo
“The sensuality of desperate lives. Only poets talk like that. But poetry has never had an answer for anything. All it does it bear witness. To despair. And desperate lives. ”
Jean-Claude Izzo, Total Chaos

Anne Tyler
“I mean you're given all these lessons for the unimportant things--piano-playing, typing. You're given years and years of lessons in how to balance equations, which Lord knows you will never have to do in normal life. But how about parenthood? Or marriage, either, come to think of it. Before you can drive a car you need a state-approved course of instruction, but driving a car is nothing, nothing, compared to living day in and day out with a husband and raising up a new human being.”
Anne Tyler, Breathing Lessons

Janet Fitch
“How could anybody confuse truth with beauty, I thought as I looked at him. Truth came with sunken eyes, bony or scarred, decayed. Its teeth were bad, its hair gray and unkempt. While beauty was empty as a gourd, vain as a parakeet. But it had power. It smelled of musk and oranges and made you close your eyes in a prayer.”
Janet Fitch, White Oleander
