“Every life is inexplicable, I kept telling myself. No matter how many facts are told, no matter how many details are given, the essential thing resists telling.

― Paul Auster, The New York Trilogy

“Leave the gun. Take the cannoli.”
― Mario Puzo

“Nothing is more difficult, and therefore more precious, than to be able to decide.”
― Napoleon Bonaparte

“When men stop believing in God, it isn't that they then believe in nothing: they believe in everything.”
