Elif Batuman
“It was the golden time of year. Every day the leaves grew brighter, the air sharper, the grass more brilliant. The sunsets seemed to expand and melt and stretch for hours, and the brick façades glowed pink, and everything got bluer. How many perfect autumns did a person get?”
Elif Batuman, Either/Or

Elif Batuman
“Even though I had a deep conviction that I was good at writing, and that in some way I already was a writer, this conviction was completely independent of my having ever written anything, or being able to imagine ever writing anything, that I thought anyone would like to read.”
Elif Batuman, The Idiot

Martha Gellhorn
“I wait every year for summer, and it is usually good, but it is never as good as that summer I am always waiting for.”
Martha Gellhorn

Georges Bataille
“Our only real pleasure is to squander our resources to no purpose, just as if a wound were bleeding away inside us; we always want to be sure of the uselessness or the ruinousness of our extravagance.”
Georges Bataille, Erotism: Death and Sensuality

Elif Batuman
“Suddenly it occurred to me that maybe the point of writing wasn't just to record something past but also to prolong the present, like in One Thousand and One Nights, to stretch out the time until the next thing happened.”
Elif Batuman, The Idiot
