Eve Babitz
“It made her question why human beings always appeared to be coming along so nicely as a whole when the bottom would fall out once again and they began collecting ears and filings from each other's heads.”
Eve Babitz, Sex and Rage

Eve Babitz
“Culturally, L.A. has always been a humid jungle alive with seething L.A. projects that I guess people from other places just can't see. It takes a certain kind of innocence to like L.A., anyway. It requires a certain plain happiness inside to be happy in L.A., to choose it and be happy here. When people are not happy, they fight against L.A. and say it's a 'wasteland' and other helpful descriptions.”
Eve Babitz, Eve's Hollywood

“. . I wonder if I’ll ever be able to have what I like or if my tastes are too various to be sustained by one of anything.”
Eve Babitz, Slow Days, Fast Company: The World, the Flesh, and L.A.

“The two girls grew up at the edge of the ocean and knew it was paradise, and better than Eden, which was only a garden.”
Eve Babitz, Sex and Rage

Eve Babitz
“Women want to be loved like roses. They spend hours perfecting their eyebrows and toes and inventing irresistible curls that fall by accident down the back of their necks from otherwise austere hair-dos. They want their lover to remember the way they held a glass. They want to haunt.”
Eve Babitz, Slow Days, Fast Company: The World, the Flesh, and L.A.
