Joyce Carol Oates
“All prices of all things—at least, useless beautiful things like rare books—are inherently absurd, rooted in the human imagination and in the all-too-human predilection to desperately want what others value highly, and to scorn what others fail to value.”
Joyce Carol Oates, The Doll-Master: And Other Tales of Terror

Mark Batterson
“I live by the maxim, love people when they least expect it and least deserve it. That how you change someone’s life forever.”
Mark Batterson, If: Trading Your If Only Regrets for God's What If Possibilities

Joyce Carol Oates
“A library is a mausoleum: books of the dead. And so many. And so many secrets lost to him forever. Hadn't time for it all and if he couldn't do it all then there was no point in doing any of it. For such an effort would be like drawing a single breath in the knowledge that you would not draw another. You were fated to suffocate, to die. You were fated to become extinct.”
Joyce Carol Oates, A Garden of Earthly Delights

Joyce Carol Oates
“Were you wounded when your marriage collapsed? When your love collapsed? Or does love never “collapse,” only just fade gradually away?”
Joyce Carol Oates, Blonde

Joyce Carol Oates
“In dreams sometimes it is like this. I am lying very still, my arms and legs are numb or paralyzed. There is a medical term—peripheral neuropathy. A tingling sensation in fingers and toes that moves upward bringing with it a loss of feeling, a spreading numbness, a kind of amnesia of the body.”
Joyce Carol Oates, The Doll-Master: And Other Tales of Terror
