Dave Eggers
“You sit at a desk twelve hours a day and you have nothing to show for it except some numbers that won't exist or be remembered in a week. You're leaving no evidence you lived. There's no proof.”
Dave Eggers, The Circle

Robert M. Pirsig
“When you want to hurry something, that means you no longer care about it and want to get on to other things.”
Robert M. Pirsig, Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance

Fred Gipson
“I remember like yesterday how he strayed in out of nowhere to our log cabin on Birdsong Creek. He made me so mad at first that I wanted to kill him. Then, later, when I had to kill him, it was like having to shoot some of my own folks.”
Fred Gipson, Old Yeller

Louis de Bernières
“Beauty is precious, you see, and the more beautiful something is, the more precious it is; and the more precious it is the more it hurts us that it will fade away; and the more we are hurt by beauty, the more we love the world.”
Louis de Bernières, Birds Without Wings

Douglas Adams
“In those days spirits were brave, the stakes were high, men were real men, women were real women and small furry creatures from Alpha Centauri were real small furry creatures from Alpha Centauri.”
Douglas Adams, The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy
