Ernest Hemingway
“I am thee and thou art me and all of one is the other.”
Ernest Hemingway, For Whom the Bell Tolls

William Faulkner
“Dreams have only one owner at a time. That's why dreamers are lonely.”
William Faulkner

Javier Marías
“I do believe that love is based in large measure on its anticipation and on its recollection. It is the feeling that requires the largest dose of imagination, not only when one senses its presence, when one sees it coming, and not only when the person who has experienced and lost love feels a need to explain it to him or herself, but also while that love is evolving and is in full flow. Let us say it is a feeling which always demands an element of fiction beyond that afforded by reality. In other words, love always has an imaginary side to it, however tangible or real we believe it to be at any given moment. It is always about to be fulfilled, it is the realm of what might be. Or rather, of what might have been.”
Javier Marías, The Man of Feeling

Ernest Hemingway
“But did thee feel the earth move?”
Ernest Hemingway, For Whom the Bell Tolls

J.D. Salinger
“I was trying to feel some kind of good-bye. I mean I’ve left schools and places I didn’t even know I was leaving them. I hate that. I don’t care if it’s a sad good-bye or a bad good-bye, but when I leave a place I like to know I’m leaving it. If you don’t you feel even worse.”
J.D. Salinger, The Catcher in the Rye
