John Irving
“You can learn a lot from your lovers, but-for the most part-you get to keep your friends longer, and you learn more from them.”
John Irving, In One Person

Ken Follett
“And where are you going?" His voice was playfully challenging.

"To get some breakfast," she said without stopping.

He leered. "I've got something for you to eat," he called after her.

"I might bite it off, though," she said over her shoulder.”
Ken Follett, The Pillars of the Earth

Vladimir Nabokov
“I could isolate, consciously, little. Everything seemed blurred, yellow-clouded, yielding nothing tangible. Her inept acrostics, maudlin evasions, theopathies - every recollection formed ripples of mysterious meaning. Everything seemed yellowly blurred, illusive, lost.”
Vladimir Nabokov, Tyrants Destroyed and Other Stories

F. Scott Fitzgerald
“His heart beat faster and faster as Daisy’s white face came up to his own. He knew that when he kissed this girl, and forever wed his unutterable visions to her perishable breath, his mind would never romp again like the mind of God. So he waited, listening for a moment longer to the tuning fork that had been struck upon a star. Then he kissed her. At his lips’ touch she blossomed like a flower and the incarnation was complete.”
F. Scott Fitzgerald, The Great Gatsby

Annie Proulx
“You should write because you love the shape of stories and sentences and the creation of different words on a page. Writing comes from reading, and reading is the finest teacher of how to write.”
Annie Proulx
